When Evelyn was born, I knew that there would be many dress-up tea parties in our future!
I have saved some pieces from my good ol' high school dance days.
My grandmother gave me some of her jewelry last spring when I helped her go through her things.
And just this past weekend, my husband received some jewelry when he and his siblings went through their mothers things.
He knew he had to have this piece to put in the plastic pencil box:
And would you believe it? Evelyn knew just what to do when we let her hold it. She immediately put it on her finger:
Just as Porter knew instinctively what to do with a ball or a truck, Evelyn knows exactly what to do with jewelry. It was so fun to watch! We just set her on the floor right next to the box of jewelry, and watched this unfold:
~the ring box opens and closes~
~this is serious business~
~bracelet on~
~necklace over the head~
~concentration~(Porter helped with the placement of the rhinestones on her head)
Oh! It's so much fun being a girl!
