now I'M about to fall out MY chair!

My poor little overexcited, tired child just flopped over like a monkey while sitting in his chair at the table. He fell asleep eating! It was the funniest thing I ever saw, even though it really startled him. He is so excited for tomorrow. He has never seen me in full throttle cooking mode before so he KNOWS something is brewing.

I will be writing a bit about his help with cooking. He is an eager helper, who tries to do things BEFORE hearing the instructions...I have to call him a self-starter and refrain from anything negative like disobedient, impatient, or flippant. He is a self-starter. I will not have to motivate him to try things himself and not fit the mold of convention.

I learned something about those words before. I am trying not to use negative words out loud, but it is really hard when I myself am determined to complete tasks efficiently * in negative words: impatient and an unforgiving perfectionist *

IM SLEEPY...still haven't done anything with the onions or garlic.
