....like today.....I was getting ready for work and Karly came into the bathroom where I was doing my hair and she was gleaming and ready to burst to tell me something.....she said, "I have to show you what I did!!!!!!"
Backstory time.....Grandma has been helping the girls with some arts and crafts while she has been visiting this week and so Karly had this whole package of heart-shaped gems......BURNING A HOLE.....you know! They are the sticky kind with a foam-like backing on them.
She proceeded to put heart-shaped gems on all the light switches on the main level of our house and they were pretty sticky. I did notice they came off better on the really dirty light switches, but now the place where they were stuck is very clean and the rest of the light switch looks dingy....haha!
Parenting is such a balancing act....I want to teach her things, give her rights and wrongs to understand, but I want her to experiment too...I don't want to stifle the creativity or the spirit, you know. Not saying I learned something profound....just saying I thought about this today.
