Today I showed what a big girl I am.
First, mommy had a longer-than-expected doctor visit, and I was super cute and patient the whole time. I even sat quietly while she got an ultrasound to confirm that my baby brother is a good size (and he is!).
Then at home, after I had made a mess of the living room with all of my favorite toys, I brought mama my box of blocks said, "uppa!" (help!) so that she would open it for me. She said, "you have to put your books away before you can play with your blocks." and without making her say it even one more time, I went over to my bookshelf and started piling in the books. I put twenty books back on the shelf. I can only pick up one or two at a time so that's a lot of squatting and standing. I stepped back and took a look around for the last two books before deciding that I was done. It took me a long time, but I didn't forget about my blocks. I went back to sit with mama and she gave me a big hug and told me what a great listener and hard worker I was. She just wanted to keep hugging and kissing me, but I didn't do all of that work for nothing... I wanted my blocks!
