Mental note- be more specific

Sunday morning- 8:43am.  Sam is still in jammies.  17 minutes until we leave for church.

I instruct Sam to go get dressed for church and that he needs to wear a shirt that has a collar on it.

Less than 3 minutes later that kid  has completely followed my directions, and has even put on shoes.

Snow boots are considered shoes, right?

Yes- I completely took him to church like that.
