Avery has been such a mommy's helper lately. Recently while I was cleaning the kitchen she went to her room and shut the door. It was very quiet in her room and she was in there for about 20 minutes. Suddenly she ran down the stairs yelling, "Mommy, Mommy, come see what did in my room!" Honestly, I prepared myself for the worst. Perhaps she painted the carpet with nail polish or drew a picture on the wall with lipstick. Nope - she cleaned her room! All by herself like a big girl she made her bed, rearranged the nick-knacks on her dresser and lined up all her animals on her doll house. How sweet! I was so proud of my girl.
She also helped me by emptying the bathroom garbage's. Again, she did it all by herself with no help from me!
Another fun thing about my sweet girl is that she loves to go shopping! Last week we went to the Bass Pro Shop with the boys and decided to look at the clothes instead of drooling over fishing tackle. Avery had so much fun finding stuff for me to try on including a long, flowy cotton orange dress. It was one of the those dresses that appeared very pretty and flattering on the hanger, but was hideous on my body. Not in Avery's eyes. She told me, "Oh, mommy, you are so beautiful! This dress looks perfect. You can wear this at your wedding!" Her sweet compliments almost swayed me to buy the awful dress as to not disappoint her. I thank God everyday that I get to be Avery's mommy!
