We start them early here

Before anyone calls CPS, I must warn you this is all voluntary on his part. In fact, he comes running from the other room each time the dishwasher is opened in hopes that the dishes are clean and not dirty. He loves doing it! Of course, nothing dangerous or sharp involved.

He is such a natural helper. He helps because he somehow sees a need and does so willingly. I know this phenomenon might come to an end someday, so I plan to enjoy it while it lasts!

You know, this is Philip's favorite task too! And last night he helped wash the pots and pans in the sink - it is great if you just overlook the water that gets everywhere!

What is it with our boys and the dishwasher?? Nicholas has taken to helping run the dishwasher, by adding the soap, shutting the lid and his ultimate favorite - pushing the button!! Isn't it wonderful to see their natural inclination to help?
