Lately Katie has really shown an interest in helping me with my daily chores. I have always encouraged my girls to help but their most likely response is, "No thank you, you can do it Mommy" or, "We're too busy playing now we can't help you." Well I was tickled pink yesterday while I was making Katie's bed. She came upstairs and said , "Stop what you are doing Mommy and please leave my room." She invited me in a few minutes later and so proudly showed me her bed that she made all by herself! I was so happy and elated that I praised her over and over again!
Meanwhile Allie had thrown some of her play pieces all over the floor in the basement. While I went downstairs later in the day to pick them up, I was surprised at the fact that the basement was cleaned up. I asked who had picked up the pieces and much to my delight Allie said she did! Could this be a trend? Let's hope so!
