Help, Help…

This is not a typical Lucas story but it was so funny (and frustrating) that I had to record it.

To set the scene both kids are sick with coughs and congestion and one of the cats had gotten sick upstairs on a bathroom rug.  I had just gotten Lily down for her morning nap, set Lucas up with his juice box and snack and was putting the bathroom rugs in the wash when I hear Lucas in the family room yelling Help, Help.

Me: I am coming Lucas, what’s wrong?

L: I am done with my juice (while trying to hand me his juice  box)

Me: Okay, when you are done with your juice box, it goes in the trash can.  Can you bring it to the trash?

L: No you do it.

Me: Excuse me.

L: You do it.

Me: No Lucas you drank your juice and when you are done you put it in the trash.

L: But my Christmas song is on (while his favorite Christmas song is playing on the computer)

Me: Okay so please put the juice box down and when your song is over go put it in the trash.

L: Oh Okay.

Thankfully this is not my typical conversation with my little boy.
