And I Just Washed My Hands

Apparently Pippi wants to hold her sister. Throughout the day, lately, I'll hear announcements of this sort:

"I did throw away that diaper, and now I'm going to wash my hands."

"Mom, I've fed the dog, and now watch, I'm going to wash my hands."

"I just put my boots away, and now I'm going to wash my hands."

"Mom, can I sit next to you? I just washed my hands."

I think she's got the idea.

Pippi is smart to be careful about washing her hands!

I just washed my hands, so I can comment. Hurray for Pippi! A big sister award should go to her.

She definitely has the idea! CONGRATULATIONS!!! What a great birth story--and what a wonderful Christmas present!

It's no surprise that Pippi is a wonderful big sister. I'm glad that you have her for a helper!

That is so great that Pippi is sanitary! June was usually picking her nose when she came around to hold baby Winnie. I think she still is usually picking her nose most of the day!
