...Or at least she tries to be.
I was trying to print shipping labels from my computer tonight, but Ella was sitting at my computer, and was making it difficult to get my work done, so I said:
"Let's get you ready for bed, because I can't get any work done with you sitting here."
Ella: "I can do your work"
Me: "I wish!"
Ella: "Why?"
Me: "Because I'm tired and I just want to go to bed."
Then she takes my list of things to plot, and asks "What color are we going to start with?"
Me: "Brown"
Ella: "How do you spell that?"
Me: "B-R-O-W-N"
Ella: "I'm going to get started on your work, go sit by the fireplace while I get your work done for you. I'll do your list, then work on your computer."
Me: "Okay" (How could I argue with that?)
A few minutes later she comes looking for me, she hands me a finished list that she filled out herself.
Ella: "I finished all your work and made you some money, now you can read me a book."
