Something momentous happened today. Oh I thought it was like any other day. There was Clara, sitting among a pile of stuff.
This is what she does all day long. She empties the contents of cabinets all over the floor, spreads a set of pencils over the floor one by one, scatters a deck (or two or three) of cards, spreads out a collection of dominoes among three different rooms, and that's all before breakfast. I, meanwhile, try to control the chaos.
(But, Ruth, you say, why don't you install child locks on the cabinets? Ah, well, you see, we moved here when Clara was six months old, and we just knew that she would be out of that phase in NO TIME! Besides, it's not like we have any toys to entertain her).
But, finally, the end is in sight. In the picture above she is sitting among a pile of plastic animals that she has dumped out.
But, look at what is going on on her right.
The large animals are all lined up. Order. Organization. Wonderful.
