Premature OCD

I get guff (sorry, can't think of another word right now) all the time for having the sweetest, easiest, most mild mannered kid. It makes me so mad! Nobody else sees the fits and tantrums, random awakenings in the night for no reason other than to play, refusal to eat...ANYTHING, throwing my shoes in the bathtub (anyone one who knows me KNOWS that is traumatic), hitting and kicking other kids.........
Well, today I was in a rush to get ready so I got her breakfast, set her in her chair and ran back upstairs to dry my hair while she ate.....fully expecting a disaster when I returned. So I run downstairs to get her ready and I find this...... Yep. She very carefully placed her empty yogurt bowl and spoon, half eaten banana, bottle AND bib on the counter next to her. WHAT!?!? I couldn't believe it....whose 22 month old kid does that?!? It's kind of scary! (notice that the fresh juice I made her with my new juicer was untouched..no thanks Mom)
She is the cutest!! She also will pick up any wrappers that Daddy leaves out and throw them away in the garbage....she also does this with food she doesn't want to eat....we're still working on that one. I swear I didn't teach her to clear her place though! I don't know if she picked it up from watching me or what, but I am pretty sure I've already ruined my child with OCD tendencies.

That is too funny. Just wait until Baby arrives... then she'll be wanting to wipe every ounce of slobber off of her to keep Baby clean.

And I think it's perfect. You want her to adopt your habits versus Tan's right?
