We were sitting down to lunch yesterday, that is me, my wife , and our three children. We were having chicken soup when my four year old spilled about a tablespoon of broth on the table. He promptly grabs his napkin to start cleaning his mess as I am getting up to fill a cup of water for our youngest. As I am filling the cup I hear my four year old exclaim proudly that he always cleans his mess up. I turn around to face him to tell him he is a good boy just in time to see him ringing out his napkin that he just used to clean up his into his soup bowl, saying once again, " I always clean up my mess"!

What can you do?
