It's Official ...

She's getting to be just like me.

In her opinion, that may not be a good thing. But since she's so much more cute and sweet (most of the time), I take it as a compliment. You're wondering what I'm talking about right? Well, I was in the kitchen doing something the other day and I heard what sounded like a bunch of books being dumped on the floor. As I flew around the wall to see what was going on, I came upon this:





Usually I'll yell and get mad before I ask questions, but this time I was curious WHY all of the movies were out of the movie bookcase, so I decided to ask her instead of getting mad first (yes, this is one time that I've been a good mom - maybe it'll be a trend!). So after spending a second or two of composing myself and my voice, I asked her: "Hailey, why are all the movies are on the floor?" Her response: "I'm organizing them all Mom." Now any of you that know me know that I'm a perfectionist and like to have things put away and organized - sometimes I'll even reorganize things many times until I feel I've achieved that "perfect set-up." Looks like my children have inherited more than a little bit of that characteristic from me. Personally, I don't think that's a bad thing, but my husband's opinion may be completely different based on having to actually live with me.

Either way, she's seen me do this many times and I guess she felt the bookshelf needed to be organized better. To her credit, she did put all of the same sizes and colors together - something I was impressed with since she's only 3.

Ah, my little daughter - too cute - and a perfectionist in the making!
