Innocently Perfect In Every Way

Cleaning up (cleaning out) the playroom once again. This seems to be what I do on a snow day...

Mom- Brooke come here for a minute. I want you to look at these four dolls and choose which one you would want to give away to someone that doesn't have a baby.

Brooke- But Mom! I like them. (begins to stare at the dolls)

Mom- I know but you have four and it would be nice to give one away to someone that doesn't have one. What about this one. This one you've had the longest. ( I picked up the one thats been through the trenches and hands of two kids, mud piles, messy lunches etc...)

Brooke- I choose this one to give. (she picks up the one and only one that looks nice, still laughs when you press its stomach, still has the same clothes on...you get the drift)

Mom- Are you sure? That is in really good shape?!

Brooke- Yes, if the littel (and thats how she pronounces it...kinda like Grandma T) girl doesn't have one, she should have the best one.

I guess I'm doing something right! Can you love her more???
