Slappy Is A Big Helper

Maddie is taking more responsibilities on, and is very proud of herself for doing so.  Here, after visiting the farmer's market, she carried the grapes and asparagus to the car.  At home, she "cleans up", ie makes her, her brother's and her parents' beds.  Even more impressive is that every morning, she gets up and feeds herself and her brother breakfast.  This allows Sam and Jess to stay in bed until 7:15 on weekends instead of getting out of bed with the kids at 6:00.  Oh yes.

First, what a great photo. Beautiful girl. Second, very impressive that she is making breakfast. What does she make? I'm wondering what I can get Maya to start doing.
