My Little Helpers

One morning a few weeks ago, just after we finished breakfast Leilani announced that she was going to do the washing up. I said, 'That would be nice, how come you want to wash up?" Straight away she replied, "Just so you don't have to do it!" I thought it was very sweet and kind of her! She often talks about 'doing her jobs' (she likes to think she is busy!!) I think it must be time to bring back the job chart. We had one a few months ago, but once it was full I never bothered to make another one, bad of me I know! The girls are usually good helpers though and like to tidy up most of the time - although tidying up to them often just means sweeping everything off to the side!!






Emily decided she would help with the washing up, and when they finished Lani said to me quietly (not wanting Emily to hear), "I think I will just do it by myself next time, because Emily was spilling water everywhere!" They did a pretty good job and I only had to rewash a few things!!! This was the end result - plug pulled and all, and notice in the last picture how they just left the stuff they couldn't reach!!!! Wish I could do that!!!



Because everyday is different and we can't remember them all, I thought I had better start writing them down. Welcome to life in the Challis home - where everyday is different!
