See Sam Chapter 7

See Sam.
Sam is a big helper.
She likes to help mom do all kinds of jobs around the house.

Today, mom is cleaning the windows.
Mom loves sparkling, clean windows.
Clean windows are Mom's favorites.

"I help you, Mommy!!", cheers Sam.
"Great!", says Mom.

Mom and Sam get the windex and some old rags.
They spray the windows.
They rub the windows.
Spray, rub, spray, rub.
They even wipe down and polish up all the window sills.


Cleaning windows is hard work.

Finally, the job is done.
Mom looks through her clean, sparkling windows.
Mom smiles.
Mom loves clean windows, they are her favorites.

Mom and Sam celebrate with the Clean Window Happy Dance.
They give each other a high five before mom heads to the shower.


While mom is in the shower, Sam has an idea....
Everyone knows that after a bath, it is a good idea to lotion up.

Sam will lotion up the windows!
Sam is proud of her idea.
Won't the windows feel great!

When mom gets out of the shower, Sam is just finishing.
"Wook, Mommy!", squeels Sam.
"I give lotion to the windows all by myself!"

Mom looks at the windows.
Mom sighs.


Mom loves clean, sparkling windows.
Clean windows are Mom's favorite.

But Mom loves Sam even more than clean windows.
Mom is smart.
Mom knows that someday the windows will be clean, but not today.
"Thanks, Sam", says Mom with a smile.

Happy Sam.
Happy Mom.

Mom IS smart. Mom is also patient! She looks adorable doesn't she? Mischievous too.

I wish I could have had that same attitude when Brittany was growing up. :) She was a big helper too. I was not quite so patient.
