Play Dough exhibit

Zoe: Mama look!

Me: Oh look! It’s a soccer ball!!

Zoe: (looks at me wondering) How did YOU KNOW??

————————————————————–

One of my favorite things to do as a mom is to bargain with the kids. They had a brand new box of 36 jars of glorious, fresh, colorful play dough in the whole wide world! It was calling their name from the toy shelf.

My house has never been cleaner.

Oh I loved the days of Play doh, the kids would sit at the kitchen table and watch cartoons and eat snacks and just be entertained for hours.
I voted for you today!
