I was so excited when I noticed that Kale had some of my crazy cleaning tendencies...like all the shoes needing to be in line by the door, when he takes his shoes off they need to go back by the door, when there is anything that can be thrown away - he HAS to throw them away for you, he puts his plate and glass on the counter by the sink when he's done, etc. Not to say that he puts his toys away or anything, because that mess doesn't seem to bother him - but I tell ya, I'm loving that I have at least ONE child that puts a few things away without me asking and likes to be somewhat tidy!! My other two children are definitely not that way...but I guess as I was growing up, I wasn't that way either until I got older so maybe that's a girl thing. But here's my problem...his love of throwing things away is starting to get expensive!! He seems to think that when he's done with anything that it should be thrown away!!! I've had to replace quite a few things - and odd things at that. The latest being fingernail clippers!
An exciting update on the girls - probably one of the most amazing days for me was listening to them read me their first book!!! They have been working on a different letter each week, and with that letter they create books that have objects that begin with that letter. It was so fun to hear them read the first book in their sweet little voices, "The pig can run; the pony can run; the peacock can run; and the puppy can run to me!" They are learning so much and growing up so quickly. It was definitely one of my proudest moments as their mom. It's become a day of excitement as Fridays rolls around and they will get to read us their books.
