As I was sitting this morning drinking my coffee and looking out the window, I began to think. It's been raining here for almost a week. The ground is muddy and the air is damp. Not a good mixture to go out and play in. So, I began to think of some fun things to do around my house with my daughter. Here's the list I came up with:
1.) Cuddle up on the couch and watch your child's favorite show. (This always leaves the memories warm and fuzzy when looking back at them.)
2.) Create something with various objects throughout your house. (We made butterfly's using clothespins, coffee filters, glue, and markers. Since her room is done as a garden, these added in perfectly.)
3.) Play a game. (Games are always a way to make everyone laugh, regardless of the age.)
4.) Bath the dog. (This not only is fun for a young child but the dog enjoys a clean bath too. Everyone wins here.It also teaches responsbility early.)
I still have a lot more idea's to go about doing. But seeing how it's 11 in the morning, and we already did the top four, I will have to add more to my list once we do them. All I can say is that it doesn't matter what my daughter and I do, I just enjoy spending time with her. Watching a child laugh is one of the best sounds/scenes in this world.
sometimes I love rainy days, sometimes I hate it. rainy days make me nostalgic. By the way, thanks for reminding me, I've not bathed my dog in 2 weeks! phooeee.. time to get it done. :) have a good weekend!
