"I could help! I could help!"

Amelia always wants to help, which is sweet when its cleaning or laundry, when it's making dinner with a sharp knife and hot stove ... well, I guess it's still sweet, just a safety issue. Since we know these days of her helpful heart might be short-lived (you know, before we start having to MAKE her help) we happily give her tasks, some have to be a little creative. Anyway, last night Daddy was hanging a mirror in the hallway and as soon as he started ... "I could Help! I could Help!" started too.

She would quickly imitate everything Dad did as soon as she could: measuring, using the stud finder ...
She also was very good at holding things for Dad until he needed them. And yes, she is standing on her chair of course.
Dad even was showing her the drill.


*Yes, even Amelia is ready for March Madness with her sports pjs :) a favorite of her. We regularly have to get new sports pjs after she grows out of them because she loves them so much... a girl after her mother's heart :)
At least we already have a few things for her brother to wear too!
