Last night at dinner:
Monkey Man: Mommy, can you please cut up my chicken?
A few minutes goes by...
Monkey Man: Mommy, can you please get me some more milk?
Another minute or two later...
Monkey Man: Mommy, I need a napkin!
Me: Any other demands, Your Highness?
Monkey Man (thoughtfully): No, all of my other demands are for Daddy.
Good thing, because this indentured servant really wanted to eat at least a bite or two of her dinner before it got cold.

Better at the dinner table than in the middle of the night. My leg hurts, come rub it. I need a tissue. I think on the final one my head almost spun around! It is good that he's willing to split the work between the two of you though :)
Indentured servant is the perfect way to describe it.
oh, man, doesn't that drive you nuts? bob will chug his drink and then want more before i've even eaten 2 bites. so i make him wait. like i tell him, "this ain't denny's."
At least he said "please"????
I'm right there with you. I'm just happy that we're finally past "momma, will you wipe my butt." I can pretty much handle everything else.
Oh, see, we STILL have to wipe the kid's butt.
Sometimes I think he will be 20 and still asking for help doing that.
