Nicholas is very resourceful. This morning I asked him to turn off a light and this is what happened.
He tried to turn off the light. "Mom, I can't reach it". He left the room and came back with a small glass bowl. He tried to stand on it, "that not working". He picked up the bowl and took it back to the cupboard. He got a larger bowl and tried again. "that not working." So he tried again with a bigger bowl. "it worked...my do it myself"
