Then There's Ava

When Carli unloads my dishwasher, the silverware drawer gets reorganized and each utensil is carefully and neatly stacked...when Ava unloads the dishwasher well, the silverware at least gets in the right drawer. I can't say the same about the Tupperware bowls...somehow those ended up in the floor of the pantry today...

What's funny...ask Ava to clean the toilets and you've never seen such a well cleaned bowl (by 7 yr old standards). I'm pretty sure Carli just hides in the bathroom and doesn't even attempt to clean the toilets when it's her day for bathroom duty!

Ava is suppose to put 5 things that tell her class about herself in this brown paper bag...here is what she put in her bag:

1. Softball rings - b/c she likes to play softball and "apparently I'm pretty good."

2. Mini Emoji Pillow - b/c she collects the bigger ones and is obsessed with all things emoji.

3. A picture of her and her siblings - including her new baby sister coming in January.

4. A Sonic Peppermint - b/c "we go to Sonic an awfully lot."

And last but most original...

5. A bag of dirt - b/c "Mom, I like dirt. It's fun to play in and roll around in and when it gets wet, guess what?! You have mud and then it gets even more fun!"
