Diversions

The TV does nothing for Katelynn, and she is so over her toys. This girl wants to be constantly entertained with something new and exciting.

The other day she asked to get in the kitchen sink. The instinctive mommy response is "What? Get in the sink?! No way!" But then I thought about it... what could it really hurt? So into the kitchen sink KK went... with a trickle of running warm water and lots of measuring cups to fill.

She played happily on her own for an hour. I got so much done! I folded laundry, caught up on emails, emptied the dishwasher... all with a peacefully splashing, non-whining toddler within sight. Of course, I ended up with a big water mess to clean... but it was soooo worth it.
