They learn our tricks so fast

My trick to getting Elijah to do something has been to give him a choice. If he doesn't want to wear pants, I give him the option of two different pairs. That way he's had the chance to pick and I have a son wearing pants.

Lately Elijah has been doing a lot of mixing in the kitchen. He is always in need of more 'gredients. Today he wanted oil for his mix. I told him that I wouldn't give him oil. He came up to me with two different measuring cups and asked me which one I wanted to put the oil in. Seriously? How do they get so clever?
