I'm Too Skinny

I woke up this morning and decided it was time to teach my youngest son a new chore that would make our mornings go a bit smoother, at least for me. I told him it was time that he learned how to make coffee. He pulled the covers a little tighter around his body and commented, "I'm too skinny to make coffee." He was very matter of fact about it and dead serious. He is one of the smallest 8th graders in his junior high school and he can't ride many of the rides at the amusement parks because he height is just below the requirement. So to him, being small limits the amount of chores he can do in our house. Being too skinny to make coffee just happens to be one of them. Autism can be funny.
