When we got home from co-op this afternoon, Eli got really busy doing something. I was in the throes of preparing dinner so I didn't pay much attention. He kept coming over to me to tell me that he was cleaning his room. He seemed very excited. I thought it was great. Way to go Eli! Keep it up! Then a few minutes later he told me that he cleaned his bathroom as well. Wow, this kid is an over-achiever. But I never had a chance to inspect his work.
Then after dinner, Eli exuberantly helped me clear the table AND load the dishwasher. He was really into it. It was great. It was a fun time together.
Then it was time for bed. I was reading to Raef and Zach and Rinar was in charge of Eli. Rinar came over to me and said that I had to come and see Eli's "clean" room.
Ta-da!!!
He took all of the soap bottles from the bathroom and stacked them on top of his little piano. He also propped a book up on the end of the bed, with a VHS tape and three remote controls, stacked like a pyramid.
I had cleaned his room earlier this week. It looked really good.
Eli just made a few improvements.

Way to go Eli!
Haha! What a little sweetie; Eli was working so diligently! At least he didn't actually OPEN the soap bottles. I have a picture of Tamahere when he had pulled out ALL of his clothes from his entire dresser and dumped water all over the pile because he was "helping me wash them." Good intentions, right?
