My little helper

This happened a couple months ago and I meant to blog about it, but got busy and forgot.  I was just looking at pictures today and saw this so I have to post it.  Bjorn is all boy and can definitely make a mess, but when it comes down to it, he won't go to bed unless his room and closet are in order.  He likes things clean and organized... I don't know where he gets that.  Yes, I think he has taken after Jason and I.  On this particular day, some mess had happened, so I had grabbed the towel that was hanging in the bathroom to clean it up.  I got busy, and didn't take time to replace it.  After the kids went to bed, I went into the bathroom because I noticed the drawer was open and that's when I saw this cute thing.  Bjorn had noticed the missing towel and felt the need to replace it.  He took a wash cloth and folded it exactly how I usually have the hand towel folded, and hung it right in it's place.  It was one of those things that makes you stop and smile and realize how much you love your child.  I thought it was the cutest thing.

How cute!! Can I borrow him to teach Brayton a few things?? Maybe they just need to play together more!

That is so sweet.

What a sweetie! And if his future wife ever wonders whether or not you taught him anything about cleaning, you have proof! Sy is an excellent helper the last couple days, but only after he first MAKES a mess. I can't get mad, because he is so intent on cleaning up afterward and "helping."

That is so cute and funny! Funny because I've lived with you guys and know how clean you really are. Noah's pretty good at helping, most of the time, but I don't think he'd ever go as far as folding the towel the right way! That's so cute!

That really is so special...also, being of the male gender and putting a towel on the hook...amazing!
