Ryan was playing with play-doh today, and after working for a few minutes on a sculpture said, "Look Mommy! It looks like your vacuum cleaner!"
I was so proud.
Not so much of the fact that he sculpted something that did actually look a bit like a vacuum cleaner...but rather, proud of myself that a vacuum cleaner is something he is familiar enough with to pull from his memory. I don't demonstrate domesticity in front of my kids very often (house-keeping in particular), so it's good to know it's just often enough that it's making at least a slight impression.
