Andrew still loves to clean. He gets excited to sweep things up. This week I indulged Andrew and let him help me mop the kitchen floor. Usually I do this when he is in bed because there is lots of drama when I get the broom out. He was supper excited when I handed him a broom and he got right to work. He actually was pretty good at sweeping up the crumbs and not getting them on the carpet.
Then I introduced him to the mop. He had never seen one in use. He was anxious to try it out.
He had fun and only fell once on the wet floor.
After moping he went back to his faithful broom to sweep over what we had just mopped (sigh, oh yes, it actually wasn't that bad).I think Andrew and I would make a great team, because I don't like to sweep but I don't mind mopping. The night ended with tears as we put the broom away to go "night night." One day I don't think he will cry when we say it is time to stop sweeping. Until then we have a joyful little helper.
