When I was a young parent I used to get irritated when one of the little one’s asked if they could help with something that was way over their heads or I could do more efficiently myself. Now with grandkids, when they say, “Can I Help?”, I immediately say yes, then start thinking of some way for them to get involved.

Last night I was changing ink on our printer and of course the youngest, Jaydah the four year old, came over to ask if she could help. I started seeing visions of ink stains everywhere in my brain, but I immediately said yes. Then, as I was opening the new cartridges, I would push the release lever on the old and ask her to pull them out while I got the new ones ready to put in. She was so delighted to throw them into the garbage and it really did save me time! What a great resource!
