I just had to share the funny conversation that I had with my son this morning.
I had just finished doing about 20 minutes worth of dishes. A dishwasher full and a draining rack full because they hadn’t been done in a few days. Nothing major. Right as I sat down after finishing my son comes up to me. “Will you make muffins?” Was he serious? “I just got done doing 20 minutes of dishes and you want me to make muffins?” I asked knowing already that I was making muffins. “Yes please…(insert cute pouty face here)” “Why do I have to make the muffins?” I asked curious as to what he would come up with for an answer to that one. “Cause you are the adult and that’s what adults do.” He matter-of-factly stated. “Ohh, so when you are an adult I’ll expect you to get up at the crack of dawn and make me muffins ok?” I jokingly said back. “No mom that’s not how it works, you see when I’m an adult I’ll have my own place. I’ll come over to hang out at your house and I’ll ask you nicely to make me muffins.” He smiled knowing he had won.
Well at least he said he’ll have his own place! (Shaking my head as I go to dirty up more dishes……)
