Morning Chores

Cherish began morning chores about a week ago, so now that she's into the routine, I decided on this rainy morning to follow her around and take pictures. She has four chores (that she has memorized). They are:

1. Make bed.

2. Get dressed and put away pajamas.

3. Eat breakfast. (This is on her chore list, because she eats better--and more--knowing she's accomplishing a chore.)

4. Brush teeth.

So, here are the pictures:

She ALWAYS goes straight to the closet to pick out a dress.

100% of the time!

"Look, momma! I can open my kajama drawer with my feet!"

"Kajama" = pajama

Cherish loves to cook.

Don't worry; no pictures were taken while the stove was on.

Momma holds Cherish's hands during the cooking process.

Here she helped make oatmeal.

We like brown sugar, cinnamon, milk, and sometimes

mashed bananas in our oatmeal.

Morning Chore Chart + stickers = great motivational tool!

Now, on with our day.... Actually, Cherish and mommy are sick this morning, so it will be a light day.
