Anemones and Swifers


Just a quick Ella update.

Can you believe that Ella can say the word ANEMONE? She has this Nemo book with buttons you press and one of them says a little saying and ends with "I live in an anemone." After it finishes, Ella always says, "anemone". Andrew and I both just looked at each other flabbergasted when we first heard it. This is from the girl who won't even call me "Mommy".

She also likes to clean things up, a surprising quality in a two year old. She likes to get the Swifer or the broom out of the closet and "clean". Granted, she won't clean up her room, but she likes to keep the rest of the house clean.

Holly,
It doesn't surprise me at all that Ella likes to clean. Andrew had a little carpet sweeper when he was two. It was just like a regular size one only narrower. You had to open it up to empty it out. He loved that thing. (It's probably still in our basement).
Love, Pat
