When we got home Younger Boy wanted to be in charge of dinner. He really wanted to make grilled cheese.
He made four grilled cheese sandwiches. It took 45 minutes. He got distracted every two or three minutes. Twice I found him in the living room playing with Sophie. Once he was on the back deck. Once in the garage. Once in the bathroom messing around with a tube of toothpaste and once in the mud room.
He realized he had a problem when our smoke alarm started going off. In his defense it goes off REALLY easy, but still.
We talked about kitchen safety and the need to stay IN THE KITCHEN when you are cooking...no matter what you are making....especially if your ADHD meds have worn off.
The grilled cheese was actually really good and I am thankful for him wanting to make it.
