Igloo

Came home from teaching a class at the gym.  Put the baby down for a nap.  Shuffled Alexis into some quiet time in her room while I jumped in the shower.  Came back to find this.

I had two places to go with this upon finding all the cubbies dumped out.

a.  I could do the knee jerk reaction of "let's get this mess cleaned up!"
b.  I could figure out what was in her little head

I picked the latter, where I found out she'd tried to build her own igloo like her favorite monkey, Curious George.  She'd even stashed a few blankets in there so we could each have one as she read me her favorite Curious George book.  Loved every minute I sat in that igloo listening to her read, and was so grateful I didn't rush to clean up what I saw as a mess.  Love, love, love these little people!
