Can I retire yet?

My not-yet-4-yr-old (he is 4 next month) DS just made himself a sandwich. Can I retire now? What other skills does he need to be self-sufficient?

You probably need to train him into how to buy the sandwich ingredients, but other than that you can probably sit back and relax.

Can he make you a sandwich though... that might be useful.

If he can make you food and pour you Wine or Brew then you’ve cracked it Grin

Oh yes, there is the small matter of purchasing the ingredients. Although I assume that he has a secret source of income from somewhere: the other day when I was giving him a piggy back when his legs got tired on a walk, he offered to pay me if I ran with him on my back!
