Thoughts from Mommy Brain

Why is it my darling 2 1/2 year old drops things behind the couch, then expects me to automatically stop whatever it is I am doing to retrieve it? Right now I know there are at least 3 cars back there, and he expects me to fish them out. For right now they can remain right where they are. I'm sure I will get them out of there in a little bit, but for now the only person they are bothering is him!
