For a child, Keira is an angel. She’s incredibly self sufficient, and helpful! Not only does she take her plate to the dishwasher when she’s finished eating but she also takes anyone elses who has finished too!
She put’s herself to bed when she’s tired and makes it when she wakes. She feeds the dog without being asked and this morning she mopped the bathroom floor when the toilet overflowed.
The only thing she doesn’t do thank god is cook her own meals….you couldn’t ask for a better child.
Dave loves having someone else to play video games with, although he wasn’t prepared for her to start beating him so soon.
He say’s she takes after me, even doing the same thing with her hands when she walks. Claps them or something. I wasn’t even aware that I did it!
She doesn’t stat school til tomorrow and she’s bored. We have a lemonade stand, I have no idea where we got it from but Keira’s been dying to make and sell some lemonade so we set it up for her in the front yard, in the freezing cold (she was insistent) and brought some chairs out the front to sit with her.
Of course no-one came past and we had been sitting out here for over an hour.
‘It doesn’t look like there’s many people out today sweetie. It’s probably too cold, but you know what? I would
love some lemonade’
‘I think Daddy would like some lemonade too’
‘sure would, how much? 10 cents! You drive a hard bargain kiddo’
