The apple ....

...doesn't fall far from the tree! When I went to wake up Connor for school this morning this is what I found. Lately he has been setting out his clothes and everything that he will need for his next day of school. I love how he has his outfit laid out as if he could just lay on top of it and it would magically wrap around his skinny little bones. He even has his shirts layered back there, all THREE, in the order that he needs to wear them.
I so remember doing this each night before school, only I folded my neatly on my dresser with my shoes laid on the floor ready to step into. I still do this with the kids clothes for Sunday and when travelling. I love this boy and his organized nature, I love his ability to plan, set and reach goals. I love that he is who he is. I love that he is my son.

Erin and Morgan do this too! I think it is so funny, but I have to stop myself sometimes from explaining to them that the combo they picked out doesn't really work! I like this age!
