priorities

While Ada had no qualms or hesitation about giving away lots and lots of her stuffed animals and toys it appears she isn't quite as giving in all areas of her possessions. Tonight we asked her to go through all of her books to pick out the ones that she wanted to keep and the ones she wanted to give away. Let's just say we aren't donating multiple bags of books to Goodwill - nope, she picked about 1/4 of her books, mostly ones she had never read (and a few of Elliot's) and that was IT. She guarded her keep pile like she was guarding the queen's jewels. She let me organize the keep books but she would not leave her books until each and every one of them was back on the shelf where they belonged.

At least she has her priorities right - books over toys any day!
