Dash and I get a whole lot of time together while Pippi naps and the others are at school.
Some of my favorite days are Mondays, when he becomes my little helper.

As my laundry helper, I promised him a warm laundry dump, if he would help me put it away after I folded it.

Then, for the first time, he was my grocery helper.  And he is the only child I’ve ever had who didn’t bump into anyone while pushing his own cart — and was calm, cool and collected.  To prove that….two other moms told their kids to look at him as a good example.

And finally, as my plant helperer — he watered.  And I promised him some of the very fruit he watered.
