Bulking up

Josh and my sister went food shopping, and came home with things I hadn't put on the list. Like tin pans. Danielle has decided we should use these to bake in so cleaning up after dinner is easier. Well, can't call her stupid.

They also bought a bunch of things to make big dishes like lasagna, jambalaya, carrot soup, tomato soup (which leads to grilled cheese, obviously), all those types of foods. So today from like 5am to 1pm I cooked a whole bunch of stuff and froze it. Josh woke up right as I was finishing, and his eyes got really wide when he looked in the kitchen at all the mess. The  cooking was just continuous instead of cleaning as I went, the way I usually do. The kitchen was just a wreck.

Josh just looked around for a solid minute, nodded and told me he'd be back. I thought he meant after he got dressed, but then I heard the front door slam. 20 minutes later he was back with a dozen donuts and coffee. We each had two donuts, and after I felt the sugar coursing steadily through my veins I got up to tackle the kitchen. Josh put his hand on the center of my chest, pushed me back onto the couch and went in and started cleaning. Reason 9378 why he's the bomb.

Can you please ask Josh's parents how to raise a child like him? Seriously.
