Helpfulness

How do I help Mommy - let me count the ways...

1. if she seems to not be able to hear me, I help her by screaming at the top of my lungs... you know, just in case she missed something.

2. i set the table sometimes.

3. if i'm really tired, i let her know, often, by screaming and kicking... especially if we're in public. this way, she knows what i'm wanting from her.

4. i let mommy know if i don't like the food she gives me by throwing it on the floor. i feel this is a clear way to communicate that i dislike something.

5. when i'm done with a snack bowl, etc... i'll go and put it in the sink. sometimes, i have to be cheered the whole way there, but really, i'm making sure that mommy knows what's going on.

6. i give mommy an upper body workout by constantly squirming if she's holding me. occasionally, i treat her to monkey legs, and give her a break, but mostly, i make her do all the work. but really, she needs it...

7. i give good hugs and snuggles to make up for my naughtiness.
