Is it too early to start Lexi on chores??

Lexi has been helping around the house since about as long as she could walk. She helps us set the table at dinner time, helps to clean up her own toys, and helps wiping the tables, chairs, etc...whatever I happen to be washing at the time. She loves it and always wants to help Mama, especially in the kitchen!

The other night Ahren was doing dishes and she said that she wanted to do some dishes. Ahren told her that when she was tall enough to reach the sink he'd be more than happy to let her do some dishes. So, never to be told she can't do something, off Lexi went to find her stool. She carried it over to the sink and said, "Dada, I have a stool so I can reach!" Ahren helped her up and let her wash her bowl. She was very thorough and had a great time. :)

Lexi heiped make the soup at the southern Lippman's holiday party. She put on her apron and rolled up her sleeves; she stood on the chair and stirred and added salt and spices and even added the noodles. When the soup was done (she tasted it to be sure) then she went around to tell everyone to "come and get it".
