My baby is starting kindergarten in a few weeks. Today was his kindergarten assessment/testing. While he went into one room with other students and teachers, the parents stayed in another classroom to complete paperwork. Kiana, my 8 year old, going into the 3rd grade, was with me and without being asked she just started filling out the paperwork for me, knowing it's a tedious, difficult task for me. She is amazing and I thank God for her.
Although, on the other hand, the other day she was complaining and asking why she was ALWAYS the one who has to help me. She may roll her eyes and sigh, but she still does what I ask when it comes to difficult tasks. (Chores on the other hand are a different story.) She'll appreciate it when she's older. I do try to make it even and ask Scott for help too. He's pretty much always willing to help. For example, if she takes the veggie dip bowl (glass bowl) out of the fridge, I'll ask him to put it away.
