Mommies helper?

Evelyn likes to help... all my kids like to "help" actually, but Evelyn is the current shadow and so helps with everything.  Her favorites are sweeping (she takes the broom from me while I'm sweeping and scatters my pile), laundry (she takes all the clean and dry clothes and puts them in the dryer while I'm putting the wet clothes in... or she takes folded clothes out of their piles and hands them to me.), dishes (she puts all the clean utensils from the dishwasher into a big messy pile in the drawer), and now it's also dinner monitor.  I don't make my kids eat everything on their plate, but I do make them eat at least half of it depending on how much they'd eaten during the day.  Evelyn has noticed that I tell them to keep eating.  A couple days ago she was sitting in her booster chair and authoritatively waging her finger at Sam and Ada yelling, "Not eating, no, no!"
