Folding Clothes

Today I was sitting on the couch in the living room, IM-ing with my sister-in-law and folding Willow's clean clothes. Willow comes out of the bedroom, and when seeing she can't climb up on the couch to cuddle with me (because it is all taken up with little girls clothes), she asks if she can help fold!

"Of course!" says me.

So, she takes each item at a time, and folds it into a bunch. Then she hands it to me and asks, "Can you help me please?" And I re-fold it for her, hand it back, and she places it on the allotted pile.

After doing this a few times, she started to get all frustrated that she couldn't fold them like mommy. So I looked down at her and said, "Don't worry about how good you fold them sweetie, just have fun!" And she did! She helped me fold almost all of them before she had to go down for quiet time.

She is growing into such a wonderful little girl!

In other Willow news...

Her Grammy Tammy bought her a Disney Princess Canopy swimming pool, and 3 purple/pinkish crates that I stacked into book shelves. So, good-bye make-shift book shelves made from boxes! Also, we haven't set up her pool yet because a~the southern Cali sun will cause it to pop, and so will the concrete that surrounds our house. So David and I are trying to come up with how we're going to do this. In the meantime, Willow's incorporated the pool into her toys. It is still in it's box, and so she serves tea on it, cooks dinner on it, and all kinds of stuff! lol... I am seriously contemplating getting her a big empty box as a Christmas present!

Also, David's birthday is on September 28th :) We're having a little shindig on Saturday the 26th. His friend Matt's flying down for it from Rocklin. We just plan to barbecue and hang out, eat cake, and all that good stuff. So, if you are close to us, mark the date to send a card or something!

Until next time... Peace and love be with you all.
