Days with Grace

I have really been enjoying the time during the day with Grace while Jackson is at school. At first it was sad not having him here everyday of the week, but I know that he is having so much fun at school so that makes me feel better.
Grace is my little sidekick these days. She is my sweet little helper around the house. Although I don't know if her being with me all the time is causing her to have some separation anxiety issues again, but either way we have some good moments together.
She loves to help me fold the laundry. When I shake out the laundry to get the wrinkles out she loves to help me, "get the sprinkles out." She loves to sort the laundry by who it belongs to. Very observant she is!
She has to do makeup with me in the morning while sitting on the bathroom counter. I have saved a few things for her after I empty them to play with. Her favorite is my concealor. She loves to dot it on her face in random spots. And oh, the eye make-up. She has made herself look more like an clown more than a girl!
She loves to help me clean and most of all vacuum and dust. I have her swiffer the playroom and vacuum around the downstairs. I do remember Jackson going through this cleaning phase when he was this age.
I look forward to having my days with Grace and doing the mommy/daughter things. Although at times we do miss Jackson and all of his superheroes battles he likes to put on! ;-)
She continues to make me smile and laugh all the time by saying the funniest things. I love the 2's and all the things that go with them...the good and bad! ;-)
