Mom and I were tired and grumpy this morning, but eventually we took on our daily missions. Mom’s required Alice’s presence, so Mom went off to make Alice get dressed and discovered that Alice was already dressed. Mom was impressed that Alice got herself dressed until Alice admitted that Charles had helped her. I don’t know what motived him, but Charles is generally the first one of us dressed on days without early deadlines. While it’s not quite as good as Alice self-dressing, I am not one to look a helpful Charles in the mouth (likely to be lots of nasty food there).
