Charlotte Builds a Towel Rack

While painting today, Charlotte spied some pipe cleaners in the art supply box.
"Wanna build with pipe cleaners with me, Mommy?" Of course!! Pipe cleaners make way less mess than sponge painting, after all. 

I twisted & bent, wrapped and shaped several pipe cleaners together to build a simple flower for her. She was busy feeling them and trying to choose her colors. Finally, she says to me, "I'm gonna build a towel rack for you!" 

A towel rack

Instantly, I knew this was something I'd want to remember - and show Ben later on. Many, many times every day I think "gosh I wish I had a picture of that!"  or "too bad cameras weren't rolling when that happened!" But this time... This time I knew I needed to record it. So I did.
