When Fin is in good spirits (remember... he's two...) he loves to help. He helps sweep, dust, wipe windows, clean the counters, cut veggies, cook dinner and bake cookies. His new love is helping to start the fire. He helps crumple up the scrap paper, hands me kindling, and even "bwow"s on the fire to get it going.
He also helps us bring in the wood. We take our wheelbarrows over to the woodpile, fill 'em up, and wheel them back to the house.
There is something just ridiculously cute about children copying mom and dad using small, toy versions of the adult things: wheelbarrows, lawn mowers, kitchens... Etc.
Gotta love having a big helper!
