My boys like to help me most of the time.... from washing up...helping me with the cooking...cleaning surfaces with the sprays and cloths always goes down well...and just recently they offered to help me paint.
Errr well I was a bit worried and said "No" as I had thoughts of large blobs of paint all over my carpet....But they persisted and persisted and I gave in .... and I was delighted....they really helped out...it was fantastic I was so impressed.
I want them to be independent men as they grow up and help take responsibility around the home...yet at the same time I don't want to give them a list of chores.....As long as they take a little responsibility I'm happy...but for now all this helping me is all good and I love it....long may it continue.
