Niceness of it all!

Usually when I am making tea or chopping/cooking something, Sid insists he 'helps', so I make him sit on the counter top and give him important tasks. Like passing me the tea powder box or sugar box (of course, 1 spoon has to go into his tummy!) and he gives them to me and has that look of completing an important assignment! Its fun, and oh, he gets to see how to cook too!

So sometime this week, I was trying to create my own breakfast cereal mix, and Sid insisted on seeing it. I added some cranberries to store-bought wheat flakes, and he wanted it, of course. Then I started cutting walnuts, chopping almonds and he wanted them all. I gave him a few pieces and continued the chopping.
Out of the blue, he says, 'Mamma, you are a nice girl'. :-)
And for that he got a big bear hug!!
