It's in your Genes... Jeans?

My sweet sister Brookie teaches first grade at Amelia's school. Amelia is the lucky ducky who gets to stay after school and help her Auntie put stickers on papers, cut things out, and clean the floors with the little push broom... all the things first graders do when they are playing school at home. She loves it, and Brooke is a good sport to let her tag along.

My Artistic Mommy decorates Brooke's classroom door every month, just to brighten the room, and the hall. She does a fabulous job! The door is always so cute, and nobody loves it more than Amelia.

One afternoon after helping Miss Auntie Brookie in her class after school, Amelia and Brooke were leaving for the day and Amelia was staring at the newly decorated door. She told Brooke that the door was BEAUTIFUL, and she wished she could do beautiful things like Grandma. Brooke told her that one day she will do beautiful things like Grandma because it is in her genes.

Amelia just stared at Brooke, paused a moment and said,
"The only thing in my Jeans are my Panties!"

I LOVE KIDS! Thanks so much for sharing some of the fun things your kiddos do. I can't believe how fast they grow, the things they say and do, and how we as parents have to consciously stop what we're doing to really enjoy our children for who they are, now. I LOVE being a Mommy, and can tell you do too. :) Thanks for posting!
