george-ism

This morning George was asked to wash all of the doorknobs in the house for his "act of kindness" (it is a miracle music thing) and was totally pumped.

George: Mom, what's my act of kindness?
Me: I need you to wash all of the doorknobs.
George: Oh yeah! Now I'll get to find out how many doors we have in our house!
[5 minutes later]
George: Mom! Mom! We have 14 doors in our house! Aren't we lucky?

And a special thanks to my cousin Andrea (one of my mom mentors) who let me keep her late last night so she could advise me on my many parenting woes.

I'm very interested in this new "act of kindness" thing you are doing. I'm sure my girls could benefit a lot from something like that, please share more! And you are so lucky that you have 14 doors in your house!

There's your answer as to whether or not Georgie would respond to jobs like this. You are lucky!

That is awesome! 14 doors and I bet he loved cleaning them.

Amy glad he liked it I actually think most kids love to help it is all in how we present it, and you rock at that! Thanks for making me feel good and ramble on about all my woes!
