We have started a reward chart with the girls. At the end of each day, they can receive a stamp for good behavior that day. If they have 5 of 7 stamps at the end of the week, they get a surprise. The surprises have ranged from going somewhere special to an extra dessert.
Well this week, Emma was the only one to earn her surprise. So, she and I headed to the park on this beautiful autumn morning. She had such a good time, but we really missed Ella. I missed Ella because Emma expected me to play and climb and do everything with her like Ella would (Whew!). Emma missed her sister and playmate and asked for her often.
I was amazed at how much Emma has grown in her climbing skills since the last time we had been to a park. She climbed every ladder, rock wall, and anything else she was able to reach. I did not know she would be able to climb some of the rope ladders so capably.

Look, Mommy! I did it! |
We really enjoyed our time together! A fun reward for a well deserving little girl.
