Oh no, thought Jacob. How can I get Mom and Dad to help?

13
“Mom, if I make lunch for you and Dad, will you help me wrap Sarah’s present?” Jacob asked.
14
Mom happily agreed.
15
“Dad,” Jacob asked. “If I fix you lunch, will you drive me to the party?”
16
“Yes,” agreed Dad. “Let’s go during halftime.”
17
In minutes, Jacob had made three sandwiches and his Mom had filled three glasses with milk.
18
“What’s on the menu?” Dad asked. “Fluffernutter sandwiches!” Jacob answered proudly. “I used marshmallow fluff and peanut butter.”
19
Then Mom and Jacob wrapped Sarah’s present while Dad found his car keys.
20
Mom said, “We make a wonderful team when we help each other!”
