Mon, January 8, 2007 - 12:23 PMNo, soap is not a given. Every time I ask my son to wash his hands, he retorts with, "Do I have to use soap Mommy?" It's like they have a mental block when it comes to soap! -

Thu, January 11, 2007 - 9:17 AMmaybe he's just trying to be ultra environmentally conscious and doesn't want to pollute the water ; )
at least he washed the dishes! that's a good start!!
my son is 4 and he loves to help me with the chores... i'm just praying that his love of laundrey will last into an age where he can actually do it on his own! -

Thu, January 11, 2007 - 6:20 PMMatt decided to start doing laundry this year for extra allowance - we had a couple of minor crises in the beginning, but overall he's done a pretty good job
