T is really int0 lining up her princess dolls. She has a specific order in her head and seriously-- DO NOT mess with it. Lately when she's been coloring I'll tell her the picture is beautiful and she will say "NOT YET!" because she hasn't finished it. I'm trying to help her understand that something can still be beautiful even if it's not finished yet. There are definite OCD tendencies in my family (Jo, I'm talking about you!). I can get obsessive about stuff too-- (quilting, anyone?) but I don't want Talia to become a perfectionist/ OCD type person.
