Well, as your kids get older "first" are not as often as when they were babies.
So, first now days around here are a lot like this morning....
A first to make up HIS bed all by himself!!!
Mackenzie always (well, I say always, some days I have to do it because we are running late, but most days she does) makes her bed in the morning before school. It's a rule around here. And YES, I do get that question some mornings like "Why do I have to make my bed when I am going to get back in it tonight??", but guess what...
it makes this mama feel a little more sane to have everything as much as possible tidy before leaving the house in the morning. Some mornings it just doesn't happen, but we do our best!
So...back to the point...I was going to make Davis' bed this morning and he said he wanted to do it...
and well, he did it. All by himself might I add. It's the beginning..where I just smile and bear the crookedness of it all, because he did it and he is so proud! (and so am I!!!)
Fluffing it just right....
Putting all the pillows in their place...
So proud of the finished product!!!!
So...here's to firsts at our house!!

Well in the Ford household that's about as big a first as walking. Haha!! Seriously though Kenziemack will thank you one day - and so will Davis' wife. ;) Miss your face!
Matt still asks me why we have to make the bed when we'll get right back in it later. Also, Davis seriously has his dad's morning hair.
