I won!

Elisabeth has developed a new sense of competitiveness in putting her shoes away when we get home. It is our routine to take off our shoes when we come in the door, and to put them away in a cubby (so that we don't trip on the). After some months of insisting that this is the first thing that we do when we get home, the routine has been established. Now we are hardly through the door before she has her shoes off and is racing to the cubby to put them away and happily announce,

"I won!"

I'm delighted for her to be a winner!
