A child's productivity displayed...

Amelia and Calla both had their own individual projects going on this lazy Saturday morning. Amelia was constructing a "really, really big tower!" While Calla was re-stacking the toilet paper rolls after she opened the package and they scattered across the floor. Amelia saw Calla's handiwork and had an average 2-year-old thought. "All things that are stacked up are fair game for knocking over..." She went bowling into them and knocked every one down. Calla, my emotional little love, fell to pieces right along with her stacks of t.p. She was so heartbroken. She immediately reprimanded Amelia. "That was not kind. You need to not do that ever again." As she stacked the rolls back up, her little mischievous sister stood watching. With a twinkle in her eye that did not go unnoticed. Calla looked to her, through tear-stained eyes and said, "Don't knock them down again. And stop standing there looking at them like your gonna knock them down!"

That is too cute. Emily told me today after I told her she couldn't have a piece of my chocolate, "You need to share, God is NOT pleased." She got the chocolate. :o)
