Admittedly, she has some bad habits. Like waking up too early, screaming for fun and throwing food on the ground. But we are working on it. For instance, I got pretty tired of wiping up the floor around her high chair after every meal, so I told her that it was on her now to clean it up and throw the food in the garbage. And she did it. And she continues to do it. Tonight was pretty bad, there was rice involved. I didn't think she would bother with the rice, just get the naan in the garbage and run off, but she patiently went back and forth between the garbage and her high chair, one grain at a time. Ben and I were tickled.
Furthermore, as halftime and bedtime approached simultaneously tonight, I asked her to clean up some of her toys. (a very generic request with little to no actual direction) She walked over to a Lambie that hadn't been moved or played with, nudged it, then went back to sliding down daddy's legs. Thanks Anna!
And that is why my toddler is the cutest.

I read your title with all competition raging inside me--No, my kid's the cutest! But, those are some pretty darn cute stories
I think Ruby and Anna would be good friends.
I love her just a little bit more after this post.
did she do ALL of the rice? What a trooper!
Saturday night I asked her to put away a DVD she got out and she did it right away. I think she likes being given adult responsibilities.
I think Thad is right. This one time I had her file my tax return, and she loved it!
