Of course you’ve heard it before because Cinderella is the template that dozens of wannabe classics have vied to become.

He wants to help use my tools, weed the garden, clean or do other things that need to be done around the house.

Something happened last week that accomplished something, was unknown by the adults and gave pure, unadulterated joy to a certain five year old.
