Washing rice when I was young

It was such a trivial story but I remembered it as a cute problem. When I was young, I used to want to help my mom. At that time-as many kindergarten students doing-I had much curious about happening around me. I wanted to do chores on my own, even wanted to take care of baby or wash clothes. I concerntrated on what my mom or other adults’s have done with curious eyes.  

 One day, I attempted to washing rice because my mom was taking a nap and her face looks tired. I don’t know why I thought like that, but I felt that my mom was tired so she want me to help her cooking! Now, I realize that I had another guess coming. I went to sink and standing on a chair,wearing an apron then washing rice. After a while, I fell off the chair and the rice in the bowl was scattered to all around the kitchen. Oh, crap! I should not have danced on a chair. I immidieatly tried to clear the kitchen not to scolded by mom but I couldn’t avoid mom’s beware. But as opposite of my thinking, mom laughed at me so I thanked to her. Girls, you don’t have to do chores so early!
