Doors...

When kids are little they don't have quite, the opinion that comes with an older child. Take for instance today, with my soon to be five year old. I would like him to wear this nice sweater with jeans to school. He would like to wear basketball shorts and a t-shirt.
 It's the little things that I am noticing that help show their opinion and express who they are. When Cole was two I could still dress him in what I wanted him to wear. I could convince him to hold my hand too. Not the case with little miss Dailey. If she doesn't want to wear it. Than you better believe she will be peeling it off the moment you put it on.
Along with expressing their personality and what they want to do, it seems I will be having doors decorated with all sorts of things and I do know this is just the beginning.
Cole wanted to put little stickers right on the door that spelled out his name. I did convince him to put it on paper and than tape it up.
He comes home from school and runs for the tape to hang things on his door. We are going through a lot of tape these days, and not just for the door. He is always taping together swords and all sorts of things that I think could be taken care of with a few pieces of tape and he has put a roll of tape on it. ha.ha.

He even taped this little arrow to our carpet to show which bedroom was his. He told us just in case he forgot which one was his. I do love his little picture he drew of the family. He forgot Lucy but I love our heads with those eyes. So your house isn't your own when they grow up and I am ok with that!!
