what's your job?

In order to get Harrison to try new foods, we have resorted to bribery rewards.  So, after he finally tried asparagus, his reward was ice cream!  On the way to Goodberry's we had the following conversation, pretty much word for word:

Me:  Look at those geese on the side of the road, Harrison.  What are they doing?
Harrison:  They are eating grass and leaves.  That's their job.
Me:  (hmmm)  What's your job, Harrison?
Harrison:  My job is to play soccer.
Me:  What's Daddy's job?
Harrison:  to go to work.
Me:  What's Annie's job?
Harrison:  to feed Annie.  (and that is most definitely her main purpose in life)
Me.  What's my job?
Harrison:  (thinking for a few moments) . . . "to clean up."
me.  (no response, but even if I had a response it was drowned out by the sound of Jamie's laughter)

and there you have it.  my life in a nutshell.
