Good Girl

Skylar has been really good lately with bringing you every piece of dirt or paper she finds on the floor telling you "dirty" or "thank you" (as we say thank you when she gives it to us). The other day I was in the kitchen trying to get dinner ready and Skylar was with me bringing all the peices off the floor and she saw me put them in the garbage pail. So next time instead of bringing it to me she went and opened the garbage and put it in. So I praised her by saying "good girl" and she repeated it back with a big smile. So off she went trying to find the smallest peice of dirt, paper or garbage and she would put it in the garbage and say "good girl" and I would repeat it back to her, not really paying attention. Then after dinner I went to throw some left over food in the garbage and found it full of her TOYS! I guess she couldn't find any more garbage but wanted to finish the game! Now when we are in the kitchen and I hear "good girl" before I say it back I look to see what she put in there first!
