Navigating the hilly terrain of motherhood

Over the past couple of days, I have been working on sorting and reorganizing our art supplies so that the girls can actually find the things they need. They are very excited about this, and it seems to have been effective, because both were hard at work on projects before dinner tonight. Grace made an octopus out of a paper plate, a hole punch (wow, where has that been hiding?), and pipecleaners. Tess used a couple of paper plates — and scissors! — to make a… um… a mobile! She was very proud of this. I especially like how she cut the edges off of one plate and taped them to the other plate.

When she unveiled her masterpiece, I exclaimed, "Wow! How did you do that?" And Tess answered, "I just put more tape and tape and tape."

I'm so proud. She has finally learned to use the Scotch tape like her big sister — who, by the way, is still creating her own masterpieces.
