An Iguana Can Swim

Gabby likes to do things by herself. She feeds herself and dresses herself. Other things she can do by herself are washing hands, putting on shoes, buckling the seat belt, going to potty, taking bath, and a lot more. “I can do it.” She says proudly if someone wants to help her.

Gabby likes to help around in the house. When Daddy is fixing something, she would go to watch and help him. When Mommy is making meat pies, she (and Rebecca) would definitely come to help.

Mommy asks Gabby for help sometimes. When her hands are full and needs to go out of the room, Mommy would call Gabby to open the door for her. Hearing that, Gabby would run to the door immediately and open it for Mommy. One day Mommy asked Gabby to mix eggs for her after she cracked them in a bowl. This job is usually helped by Rebecca. Gabby did a great job that time.

A little girl like Gabby makes Mommy and Daddy’s job easier sometimes. Mommy and Daddy can always enjoy their own meals at dining time. When all the people are busy, Gabby can play toys and games to entertain herself.

A little girl like Gabby makes trouble sometimes. She could get her clothes wet when she washes her hands and Mommy would need to change her clothes. She could take her time to put on her shoes while Mommy needs to get out of the door right away.

A little girl like Gabby is a creative thinker sometimes. One day Gabby painted her left-hand finger nails with markers. Each nail had a different color. She was excited to show Mommy her rainbow nails. With her mouth open, Mommy wondered where she got that idea.

A little girl like Gabby is an explorer sometimes. Gabby likes to play puzzles and is very good at it. She likes to sort things out. One day Gabby found out that an iguana can swim. She has a fishing toy which consists of a fish pond, some little fishes, and fishing poles. Both the fish pond and little fishes have magnets. When the switch is on, the little fishes swim in the fish pond. Gabby's littlest pet iguana has a magnet in it, too. When she put it in the fish pond, it swam!

Mommy and Daddy forgive all the trouble Gabby makes. She is only a two-year old little girl after all. They love her as she is.
