I Guess It's Been A Rough Morning

So, I'm stuck in bed for a few more days while my leg heals.  Gabe came upstairs for a visit, and I asked him if he was being good for Daddy.  Here's how it went:

Me:  Hey, Buddy.  I'm so happy to see you.  I missed you.  Are you being good for Daddy?

Gabe:  I'm trying but there's anger inside me.

Me:  Why's there anger inside you?

Gabe:  I'm angry because Daddy pulled my hair.

Turns out, Gabe was repeatedly fresh with Zach, and J tried to stop him from doing something fresh and caught his hair by accident.  Though I'm sad that things have been hard for the boys, I just find it remarkable that Gabe's able to express himself so well.  (I wish anger wasn't the emotion he felt so often, but at least he's able to talk about it...)
