This morning, in the time it takes me to put Natallie's clothes back in her room, she discovers that Q-tips are not only fun to throw across the bathroom floor but also is fantastic to chew on....
Look Mom! I don't know what these things are but they are fuzzy at the end and fun to chew! |
When I leave her in the living room so I can get changed, I come downstairs to find her in the kitchen conducting scientific experiments of how the amplitude of chocolate chips bounce varies depending on how forcefully one throws them across the kitchen floor
Or sometimes Natallie just decides that the entire pantry needs some reorganization and helps me get ahead start, she was probably just trying to organize the cereal alphabetically but soon realized that she doesn't know her alphabets yet. Darn.
And today I took Natallie's hint and tried to organize the pantry and I ended up knocking over a box of macaroni which led to extreme excitment for Natallie. My budding scientifist seized the opporunity to see how macaroni bounces on the floor differently than chocolate chips as I frantically tried to pick up all the macaroni on my hands and knees.
And when I'm in a especially positive mood, I attempt to see how many dishes I can put away before Natallie notices that I am having great fun without her and she climbs in the dishwasher and tries to offer her generous assistance.
Thank you Natallie. Without you, my life would be so uneventful. Thank you so much for keeping things interesting around here.
Natallie is such a little curious explorer, and she looks so innocent and happy in all the above photos! Hope the proverb "curiosity kills the cat" is not applicable for this generation.
