Stackin’ Stuff
Posted By pamelamyers on March 5, 2012
Sam, like most toddlers, can be sort of OCD at times. Sam has this thing with stacking things up. Sometimes it is normal things like blocks, but other times…well…not so normal. The other day she was helping me, like usual, with the dishwasher. I was loading dirty dishes and had my utensils neatly dividing into the little holders in my utensil rack. Every time I do this, Sam feels the need to rearrange them. I have no idea why. This latest time, she pulled all the utensils out of their individual holes and put them together, told me they were kissing, and then put the bowl, well, you can see….
Not long after that, one morning I was getting dressed for work. Sam is always following me around, talking to me, picking out my clothes, down to my underwear, and picking out my shoes and jewelry. She often asks to see the various things on my dresser and this particular day, she went about her stacking….I think she did a pretty good job!
I am a Virgo, which traditionally has been described as a somewhat OCD, meticulous type of zodiac sign, and Sam missed it by one day, she is a Libra. I don’t really tend to believe in that stuff very much, but I have to admit, I am a Virgo to a T, so I do recall when I was in labor thinking, oh Lord, she will be a Virgo like me, then being glad she was a more relaxed Libra. Hmmm…maybe she is a little more like her mommy than I thought.
