Will-O had to record in Chicago tonight, so I told Scarlet that after Liam was down for the night she could stay up late and we would roast marshmallows. HOLY CATS!! She was so jacked up about this. I also told her she had to help me pick up the downstairs before we could get the grill ready. This put my girl into serious work mode. She was like a little robot cleaning girl. Never before had toys and animals been thrown in the baskets so quickly. She even wiped the counters and table down. Whew.
We went to the side yard and I gave her a quick debriefing in fire safety--she loved it all. She collected "the best" roasting sticks and we cooked to perfection a half a bag of the sticky goodness. At the end, (there was no whining--weeee) with a combo of soot and burnt marshmallow on her cheek, she declared "Now I know it's summer!"
Worst Part of the Day-
I have had to sit down and begin a "to do" list for some time now. I really thought it was going to be today...it wasn't.
