Beautician: I’ll bet the hair dresser world can learn a lot from these girls: Did you know that paint, dirt and almost any sticky substance is desirable for hair quality? Hair putty is great for soft feet and mascara....whew...!...Oh, the many uses of mascara..... body art!!
Construction Workers: Our girls love to help Daddy with about any project he’s involved in. We have TONS of puncture burrs around our house. These do NOT deter Silver Dawn in the least from being Daddy’s little helper. Silver will sit down (getting more burrs in her backside) to pull out burrs from her shoes. Sometimes she falls and gets them in her hands, arms and legs…hardly a complaint…she’s in the big outdoors with her Dad!
She is with him wherever he goes and toddles and has the greatest time.

Teacher: River loves to play school. She loves to be the teacher to anyone she can!
We love to turn up the music and Dance!
Can't get enough twirling!!
River dancing with uncle Mike!
Circus/Performer/Stunts: Silver’s favorite place is to stand on the arm of our couches and bounce. She also likes the desk and the table:
Silver has figured out how to climb on the chairs, and then onto the table. What a world of possibilities has opened up now!
She can get up to just about any counter with her stepping stool or heater for help.

Jumping!!
Landscape maintenance – weeding: including most all flowers that ever show their pretty faces – lovingly picked for mommy. Watering: We love to water trees, the dirt to make mud, mommy, our sister and our-self. Silver waters herself about as much as she waters the plants. We love Digging holes and playing in the dirt!
Animal Caretaker: Recently we were able to take care of Paca’s horses and calf for a couple of days. What a grand adventure. Puppy’s are extra-extra loved!! Including being packed around anywhere you want to go!
Photographer: River LOVES to take pictures
Mommy: Mom, Look at Me! I’m almost a Mommy! She loves doing things that mommy’s do! She loves little babies and making them laugh.

Cook: Our eggs are special around here! Not everyone gets crunchy eggs with extra calcium!! As an added bonus, sometimes when mommy turns her back the eggs are hand squished and mixed with extra love!
River and Silver both enjoy packing around their “kids” River regularly has a stuffed animal friend or two around with her.
Music Director/Musician: Silver loves to lead singing time in church with the conductor. Both girls love to play the piano. Silver Dawn especially “asks” to be put up to the piano.

River loves to Sing: This was a fun activity this Christmas: The library had a kids book on tape. After the story was read, a couple of Christmas songs were on the tape as well. River about wore out that tape!

Artist – Art is River's FAVORITE thing to do! She says she wants to be an artist when she grows up! Canvases include floors, walls, doors, chairs, self! We laid out sprinkler lines the other day and River enjoyed coloring with marker on the pipes.
Mediums: Food, crayons, dirt, mud, water, juice and to name a few. Playdough is a favorite in our house.

Marketing/Advertising/Sign Maker: Above is a sign that River made and posted above the toilet in her bathroom. The sign reads "Don't Pee on the Floor!"
After Daddy got home he helped her paint this on our laundry shelf. Mommy LOVES it!
Floor Wash Housekeeper: This is one of my main roles, so naturally, one of River’s as well. She can stay entertained for a long time with a squirt bottle of water and a squeegee and a dirty window! She loves to clean the floors and wash anything that is hers. She regularly asks for wipes to clean the TV, her toys, her table and playhouse.
Garbage collector and disposal: Many times as I pass a garbage and glace in or look in before throwing something away, there is something important on the top. Silver helps me get rid of our stuff.
Doctor: bandaids are a staple in our home. River carries her doctor kit with her around the house most days and loves to give shots and make sure her patients are continually in good health. One of the best remedies is some cream – she knows which ones are best for each situation: Neosporin, lotion, anti-itch, diaper cream, etc. and a bandaid!! Silver has even gotten to the point that she comes and “asks” for a bandaid while pulling up her pants to put one on each knee.
