Help You, Mommy?

I can't tell you how many times I hear those words during the day. When I'm doing laundry, cleaning the bathroom, making supper, or just picking up around the house. Little Man loves to help. His 'job' when I do laundry is putting away Daddy's socks. He LOVES it! Although I have caught him putting Daddy's socks in his (Little Man's) drawer. I even found a little sock in my sock drawer.

When he wakes up in the morning he runs downstairs to grab his cereal box. At lunch he grabs his peanut butter and then the jelly. He HAS to put them away too or the world just wouldn't be right.


I love how he asks to help but sometimes it's easier (like when I'm making supper) if he plays or watches a movie. Today for example, I was having a stressed filled day with calling people and trying to get alot of stuff done. Unfortunately Little Man decided to take a short nap. He wanted to help me make supper but I honestly wasn't in the mood in putting the Teddy Grahams back 200 times. So I popped in Jungle Book and that entertained him while I cooked.

But his helping does come in handy at night when he helps put all his toys away.

Now...if only he can be this helpful when he's a teenager.
