Late this afternoon, Bryan decided it would be a fun treat to take the kids on a spontaneous camping trip just for tonight. Ella was thrilled and immediately commenced to packing her bag. I packed for Simon and gathered all the linens and as the time to depart neared, I racked my brain for things we may be forgetting.
Me: Ella, did you get your boots?
E: Yes, and Simon's too.
Me: What about socks...I think you'll need socks with those because it will get quite a bit colder this evening.
E: Yes! I got TWO PAIRS!
Me: Wow Ella, you thought of everything! You don't even need a mom!
E: Yes I do. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have learned any of this stuff.
Credit is nice, though, I think she's done just fine on her own. She's a great kid.
