Yesterday, I was trying to make dinner, while Abby was begging to help, and since it didn't have any toddler capabilities (all chopping, frying, etc...), I tried to steer her away from me.
Me: "No, honey, I can't have you help me in the kitchen, but you could help Mama by playing with Esther."
Abby: (Shoulders drop and whine begins) "Ohhhhh, it's toooooo hard to do."
Me: "It's too hard to do what?"
Abby: "To keep an eye on her."
Now maybe she's developed just an ounce more empathy for my job (though doubtful!).
