Domestic

Never one to miss an opportunity to help, J easily learned how to use the shop vac while we undertook some much-needed home repairs.

And my mother, another one who cannot sit still, teaches J how to wash windows. Should I admit that she does a better job than me?

A Sunday morning, rolling out dough for one of our many baking projects together. J has been baking with me for almost a year and is quite the competent little baker. She can beat, stir, roll, sprinkle, and mash with control.

Wow - you and Marie would really get along - baking is a big think at home! As for windows - you don't have to admit to a thing - but be glad you've got a qualified assistant!

hugs - aus and co.

Wow! Can you send her over? We have a lot of vacuuming to do and a lot of dirty windows! :)

Monica, they truly are amazing, aren't they? Mine loves to clean as well. She's got the routines down, and I have to say it makes me so proud.

I am impressed! It is hard to get the kids to do chores! I wish I had helpers like this at my house!
