Trash talk

It's not what you think.

Within the last couple of weeks Lilly started throwing away trash on her own. If she ate a granola bar for example, she excitedly announced that she was taking the wrapper to the trash. "Fantastic!" I thought, "She cleans up after herself!" She favors the little wastebasket in the front bathroom. Hey, I'm not going to be picky! I praised her exuberantly for helping me and throwing away her garbage.

Perhaps I was unclear in my praise, because for the last 2 days I've been finding shoes and bowls in the trash. Never a dull moment!
