Hailey's rules

Hailey has begun writing like crazy and she is always asking me how to spell things. Usually they are long, like "Please come to my tea party in my room after nap time. We will have snacks and party games and it will be lots of fun," which I have to convince her to shorten a little! A couple of days ago she decided to write some rules to put up around the house. She patiently asked me how to spell each word, and I did not help her at all. Here is the first rule, made for the bathroom, and obviously taped by her:


After posting this, she came out and told us all that there is a rule put up in the bathroom to remind us to wash our hands so no germs will be on us. I'm good with this rule!

Then the next day we needed another rule for by the front door. This one is a little trickier to read, but it says "Take your shoes off at the door".




Of course, we must leave these rules up to refer to often. Derek and I are ok with that because they make us smile each time we see what our little "rule-maker" has been up to. I wonder what will be the next rule?

Wow, I am impressed with her writing. Nora has no interest like that since she knows she can get Madison to write anything for her!!

Being a "rule follower" myself, I can really appreciate this...so cute.
