Due to the massive snowstorm that hit the midwest last night, I had a snow day of sorts today and worked from home. I used to work from home one day every week, but ever since I began my newest role at work, I just haven't had the opportunity to do that as much. It was definitely a con of the job, but there were just too many pros, so I couldn't pass it up.
Anyway, during my lunch break today, I noticed Caroline building with blocks. She's had several sets of blocks for over a year now, but the most fun she's typically had with them is dumping them out on the floor and spreading them around. But today, I noticed her really focusing -- and longer than five minutes -- on building towers with the blocks.
Boy, did I ever scoop up that golden opportunity! Since I was due for a break, I sat down with her and we built with blocks for quite some time. Caroline was really concentrating hard on these blocks and how she was arranging them as the tower grew higher and higher. Then we'd have fun knocking them down and starting over again.
It was definitely the most fun lunch break I've had in a long time.

How cool is that!! More brain development on Caroline's part... fun development on Mom's.
