"Um, dad, you just made quite a mess in the kitchen. We would all love to come help you with the cleanup." Bailey said enthusiastically. "Okay, Bailey," I said in frustration, "I know I made a mess when I dropped the container of dog food all over the floor BUT, I think it's best that I clean it up before I allow all of you into the kitchen for dinner. I wouldn't want any of you to get bloated from eating too much food. I'll make you a deal, though. I'll clean up as much as I can reach and the rest of the dog food is fair game."
"Dad, I know you. You'll be very thorough and there won't be much left for us to help clean up. Still, We'll gladly finish cleaning up the mess. Something is better than nothing." Bailey sighed. "Please keep in mind, dear one, that any dog food remaining on the floor will be in addition to your regular dinners." I retorted.
Dogs are the best mops! At least you'll get a taste, Bailey!
ReplyDeleteBailey, that's very kind of you to help your dad clean up!
ReplyDeleteAh, you were certainly under the watchful eye of Bailey! I remember how excited my FiveSibes were to "clean up" in Kitchen Aisle when I dropped food! Especially our girl Bandit, I called her my vacuum!
