Miss Jayda always keeps us laughing and shaking our heads on the blondness of her hair! She's been packing her own lunch on the days she doesn't like what is being served. I have usually packed a lunch for her, but she decided she could handle the task, so I willingly let her pick what she wanted and do it herself. She came home last week after packing her own lunch that day and told us she was terrible at making sandwiches! She forgot to put the turkey in her turkey sandwich! She said she bit into it at lunch time and discovered her mayo/cheese sandwich! YUCK! So yesterday when she packed her lunch, I did sneak a peak to make sure everything looked OK and I threw in an apple :)
It's fun to see her grow this past year into such a great helper. She has been helping me in the mornings with Paisley. Jed has been going outside earlier so Jayda gets herself ready for school then helps Paisley get dressed while I am getting ready. As soon as we get home she changes into her boots and is out the door to help Jed get the heifers in. Even when it's cold and windy she bundles up and heads out there. She's very disappointed when we get home and he's already got them in the corral. Her willingness to get outside and help is a huge improvement for her. I wasn't sure at times if she was ever going to catch the "horse" bug. All it took was a horse that she gets along better with and her whole attitude changed. Now if I could just get her to shut her dresser drawers and hit the garbage once in a while, we'd be doing good!
Unfortunately she's not the only one who has a hard time finding the garbage.
