A few days ago, I was exhausted (as usual) and crabby. I plopped down in a chair and said, "girls, Mom's stressed out!" Ella immediately said, "Maybe we could help you. I can make lunch! I'll make peanut butter and jelly. (Lily says "I want tuna.") Ella: I can't make tuna fish, but I can make peanut better and jelly!"
So I let her! Lily decided to help, too. All I did was open the jars. I did have to scoop about a third of a cup of jelly off Lily's sandwich and put it back, leaving her with only 1/4 cup on her bread. It definitely perked me up.
