Our respective jobs

Audrey's job is to feed Isabella. Since Ian really wanted a job, too, his job is to open the door for Isabella to go outside. Audrey realized yesterday that she hadn't gotten her allowance yet, which meant we were a day late (probably will never let us forget that one). Eric had traditionally been the one giving her allowance since he's also working on helping her learn to count money.

Audrey: "Hey, can I get paid?"

Me: "Yes, but you can wait until daddy gets home since that's his job."

Audrey: "Well, my job is feeding Isabella. And Ian's job is to open the door for her. And daddy's job is to pay me. What's your job, mommy?"

Me: "I don't have a job. Just the way I like it."

Audrey: "No, mommy. I know what your job is. Your job is to tell everyone what their job is!"

Yes, she's got it! And she also announced to Eric when he got home from work: "Your job is to give me money!"
