She Impresses Me

Each day I become more and more impressed with Curly Top ... for all different reasons ...

Every day she has new words she says ... it is funny to figure out where she picks them up ... Monday it was jelly ... not sure where she got that one ... but it was cute listening to her use it ...

As I have written before she absolutely loves putting change in the bank ... she will drop whatever she is doing if I call out I have change ... like tonight ... we were in the backyard blowing bubbles but the bugs were really bad and I wanted to go in so I announced I had change for the bank ...

She whipped that bubble wand behind her head and raced to the door ... what impressed me so much was that every other penny she handed to me to put in the bank ... as much as she loves doing it she was willing to share in the fun ... I thought that was just wonderful ... and she smiled as much when I did it as when she did it ...

Then when it was dinner time and I was getting the table ready I handed her the forks and napkins and asked her to go set them on the table ... when I walked into the dining room she had put a napkin and a fork at each person's place ... I was in awe ... she had never done it before and we had never gone over it ...

man she is just such an awesome kid ...

  1. She's obviously inherited your generous nature.... and that is AWESOME about the table setting - maybe I'm under-estimating but I think my girl would be clueless if I did the same! Go Skye!
