I love watching my kids invent new ways of playing. Today, they took a pampers box and turned it on it's side...then, Noah showed Haleigh how to push their blocks down through the hole where you hold onto the box. They have literally been playing this new game of theirs for like 15 minutes...and it's so cute. Hales is taking it super seriously as her new favorite thing to do is help Mommy and Daddy clean up around the house. We are blessed to have two children who love their chores...and yes, even our one year old has chores. We aren't super strict about them or anything, but we'll hand Hales a baby wipe and let her wipe off the television...which she things is the coolest thing these days. Weird, but true. And Noah's favorite thing to do is sweep. But we haven't really invested in a kid size broom so he uses the adult size one and it's hilarious to watch him. But heaven forbid we take his broom away because then the terrible twos tantrum starts. But, I'm SO not complaining...if he wants to sweep, I let him. I'm just dreading the day they start to think everything I do and say is "so not cool". Which probably won't even be in style to say that phrase by the time they begin to think of me that way. *grin* That's weird to think about.
Well, it's off of here for now to get started on fixing lunch. Then, hopefully the kids will take good naps today so we will all be in a good mood for playtime outside later today.
