Poor little Ethan has been very bored with Mommy recently. With Christlyn in school, Connor at home with his mom who's on maternity leave, Ethan is left with no one to play with and nothing to do. He's been following me around the house like a little puppy asking me to play with his trains with him or to ride bikes with him. Today he wanted to be a big boy and do 'Homework' like sissy. So I pulled out our tub of workbooks and craft supplies and we had a little preschool lesson on counting.
He's a pro at counting up to around 14...but writing the numbers was a challenge for him. But a challenge was just what he needed
today to take his mind off of being bored. That and of course housework!!! That will teach him not to complain about being bored to Mommy...she'll just make you do chores!!! No, he was actually begging to help and thought he was quite the big boy for scrubbing the toilet and washing the mirror.
Luckily Grammy saved him from a day of slave labor around the house when she called and asked to take him out with her while she ran errands!!! Thanks a lot Mom...now I have to do all the housework myself!!!

My pleasure Shell. Ethan is so adorable and quite the little man to help grammy with errands. I discovered that he can inhale an Reese's Peanutbutter cup in two minutes flat! Of course, it took him a bit longer to lick the chocolate off his fingers....oh well...that's half the fun for a three year old.
Ethan, when can you come and help Nana with her house cleaning? We have lots of big mirrors here and, better still, lots of big windows that you can spray - you will need a ladder though. Good job, Ethan, mommy's little helper! Miss you so much...
