Anyway, this evening Nicholas came home from school with another art project he'd done for Elizabeth. Let me show you what it looks like:

Any guesses?
It's a sticker chart, which we use with Nicholas to keep track of when he does what he needs to do (especially his morning and evening routines). Each time that Nicholas successfully completes his assigned tasks, he gets a sticker, and when he fills up his chart, he earns a treat of some kind. That's how he got to see Planes with Mommy this summer, and if he'll ever listen, I will owe him a trip to IHOP in the near future.
So Nicholas spent some part of today making Elizabeth one. When he finished dinner, he asked for stickers. When we gave them to him, he asked, "has Elizabeth been good?" Yes, we said. "Okay, she gets a sticker!"
He also wrote her name on the back (though a teacher helped him to spell Elizabeth's name).

So that makes another way that Nicholas has decided that he's in charge, though it's had almost no influence on how he does with his own responsibilities (it's been maybe a week since his last sticker).
