Bregon: Defender of Little People Everywhere

This weekend, Bregon and I once again headed over to Dallas to see, "The Wedding Singer."

We have seasons to the Dallas Summer Musicals so that he has something to look forward to over the summer.

We usually stop in Mesquite and check out the used bookstore in front of Town East Mall before heading over for a bit of shopping and lunch.

While eating, I noticed that Bregon was distracted and seemed preoccupied with something.

I figured that it was going to end up being a cute girl that he was eyeballing, but as it turns out, it was a little boy.

The boy was about two or so, and appeared to be separated from his Mum as he was toddling all over the food court area alone.

Bregon apparently had noticed and was watching to make sure that this little guy didn't wander too close to the escalator or into trouble.

Eventually, a Mum did appear to claim her little boy. Apparently, she had been stuck in a very long line at S'barro's and he had wandered off while she was ordering or something.

But, not to worry, her little boy was being watched over by an eagle-eyed, very aware Bregon brother who is quite accustomed to the folly of his younger siblings!

At first, the incident seemed isolated, but later that evening, while we were having dinner and watching a kid's hockey game at another mall, a similar incident occurred.

We were seated at of those open area restaurants where the only thing separating the table from the outside mall is a wrought ironed fence of sorts.

A little boy of about two came wandering past, holding only his sippy cup. He was lone, or so it seemed.

He wandered dangerously close to the glass partition that served as a sort of divider to keep adults from falling down to the lower level which happened to be overlooking the ice-rink.

Bregon picked up on the little boy before I even noticed him, and was excusing himself to go and try and help find his Mum when we realized that she was sitting further down in the boxes watching the hockey game below.

One of the little boy's siblings noticed that he was gone and had come to fetch him before Bregon could get up from his seat.

People always say how attentive and good Bregon is when he is out and about with his siblings.

They come up and complement him all the time, actually, on how good of a big brother he is.

Apparently, his big brother skills have become second nature to him, and he now watches out for every little person in his site!
