Now that school is back in session, Jon and I are trying to make sure we get the boys back into the habit of helping out around this house. This usually takes the form of drying the dishes after dinner. The other night it was Theo's turn, and as Jon washed, listening to Theo gab away, he wasn't paying too much attention to what Theo was doing with the dried dishes. But then Theo placed one final dish and called out, "Dad! Aren't I being convenient?!?" Jon turned to find quite a sculpture park of Theo's dried dishes. He had carefully balanced them on top of each other in little configurations so that they all fit on the counter closest to him. Now, my definition of convenient is when the boy with the dish towel gets the dried dishes into the correct cupboards and drawers, but upon eyeing up Theo's creation, I had to admit that he sure was....something.
