Can you tell that at our house we just LOVE paper? It is our best toy. When we get low on paper the kids ration it out and then remind me several times a day that I need to buy more. The last time we ran out I told them that I couldn't get any until Monday. When Monday came around, it was like a holiday. I was a hero when I showed up with a huge new ream of paper. The next time I feel unappreciated, I'm going to go out and buy a package of paper - maybe even colored paper to make it extra special. I'll be the BEST MOM EVER!
Here's a great picture that describes perfectly the relationship between Carter and Taylor. The sign on Taylor's chest reads "Astronat Assitiant." Taylor is always so happy to be serving Carter. I wonder if he will ever out-grow that. (He's holding a microphone to communicate with Carter)
Check this out too! I remembered it when I saw the assistant costume. We found this sign on Carter's wall a few months ago.
In case you can't read it:"Carter - Set's up activites and Is the Comander
Taylor - Is Gopher and gets stuff for Carter"

My kids love paper too. And the power of the older siblings is incredible. (I was a first child too.)
I let the kids pick out COLORING BOOKS from the dollar store the other day, and I was mom of the year. For a few hours anyway.
I just wish Lucy would feel the desire to be like her big sisters in the potty department!
Haha! That's so nice Taylor goes along with Carter being in charge :) Those are cool creations, you are doing a great job of encouraging their creativity!
And I say it again: your kids are so creative!!
That sign in their room is hilarious! They did a great job creating!
Oh, the hierarchy of kids. That is hilarious. I don't see that kind of relationship with my kids yet. Maybe Jake and Cameron - I don't know, we'll have to see. Or Cameron and Matthew. That might work. That made my day! Thanks for posting it. :)
And hey, how come when we were little, you didn't abide by that hierarchy? You were never my gopher or servant!
I love reading your blog! I couldn't stop laughing when I read that sign!!
