Chores

My children have a great life! They have very little to do besides the obvious picking up after ones self. At times, that can be quite difficult. Once in a while they are asked to sweep, set the table, collect the garbage. I am not good at being consistent with these things. I know I need to bee. One of the things Jon and Sami are suppose to do is feed the dog. Sami feed him in the morning and Jon at night. (I usually end up doing it!) I have decided Nick will never have to be told to do anything! He just sees us doing it and one day he will start doing the same thing i.e. pushing in the bottom drawer of the fridge with his foot or putting his shoes away. So, I was not surprised to find him deep into the dogs food container getting out food and emptying it into his bowl. It was quite humorous! Duke sat patiently waiting for the magic word so he can eat. Of course, Nick doesn't know that and keeps dumping food in his dish! When he was done, Nick did say 'Go, Duke' and pointed to the bowl. Now if I can just get the other two to do it!
