I was refilling the sugar canisters after a trip to Costco this week, and putting away all our other purchases when Lila asked to help, put a way the "donuts". I knew she meant the bagels and told her sure, but to wait for mommy to finish her job first.
She went on talking about how she was going to help and leave some in the bag for the downstairs freezer, and put some away in the kitchen. "OK, sure" I replied, distracted by work, which might have been a mistake You know it's always a good idea to keep track of busy five year olds.
She didn't wait.
"Mommy look, I helped put away the donuts" she very proudly told me.
Here are some other helping moments in the life of the zoo.
