Noa has been helping Jeremy do some painting in our back room recently!
Jeremy and I have this long running joke when the other is attempting to be helpful but is really just making things worse. We call these "Zachary Zugg" moments, based on the character of the same name in the Shel Silverstein poem, "Helping":
Zachary Zugg took out the rug,
And Jennifer Joy helped shake it.
And Jennifer Joy, she made a toy
And Zachary Zugg helped break it.
And some kind of help is the kind of help
That helping’s all about.
And some kind of help is the kind of help
We all can do without.
As for the final verdict on the helpfulness of her "helping"? Not quite Zachary Zugg-ish, but not quite Jennifer Joy, either!
