Pretend play

This boy loves to watch us cook. He insists on being held so he can see what's happening in the pots on the stove – I'm getting really good at one-handed cooking. He takes what he learns back to his play kitchen. He puts his toy colander into the sink, drains his imaginary noodles, then dumps them back into the pot. He pours a little imaginary seasoning into the pot, stirs it up and tastes it. I taste it. Nate tastes it. It's pretty fun play for all of us. But when he's done, he puts me to work, washing his dishes. Hmmm...

I can't wait until Finn can do that instead of hit me in the head with a wooden spoon.
