I don't wanna be 6 years old!

December 2007

Mommy and Liam talking about him being a bigger boy and that he has to take up more responsibilities around the house. Also that I would stop helping him because he knows what to do.

Liam: "Now I don't wanna be 6." *Pouting*
Mommy: "It is not that hard, I do it all the time."
Liam: "But I don't know where goes where."
Mommy: "For your toys, you can put where you want. It'll be easier for you to remember where they are instead of asking me to help look for them."
Liam: "But the blue boxes is too hard."
Mommy: "Ok, let's play a game." I took out a deck of cards. "Make them into groups any way you want."
Liam: Did it in no time, into 4 groups.
Mommy: "What did you do?"
Liam: "They all are in the same shapes"
Mommy: "Same suits. Yeah I see that. Was that hard?"
Liam: "No it is too easy, I'm smart."
Mommy: "You are right, you are smart. Recycling is the same. You sort out similar items together."
Liam: "I don't wanna be 6!!!!"
