Today at our house was take your daughter to work day. (Although really as a work-at-home mom, most days are like that!) But today I made Adeline a special desk next to mine in our spare bedroom/office. We recently scored her a small desk/vanity at a second hand store and it was the perfect size. We outfited it with our old mac keyboard, a monitor made out of blocks, her camera and her toy phone...so she could answer all the work calls. "Lisa Kunkel Photography this is Adeline how can I help you? giggle giggle, hiiiii."
She LOVED it. My photo editing productivity went down but we sure had fun playing.
I would type, then Addie would type. We would take pictures and then spin around on the office chair.
The following is what I typed earlier today while playing and imagining the conversation we were having....between each line break is when she would furiously move her fingers over her keyboard striking the keys.

Are you having fun my little one?
Yes mama! I get to type just like you!
let's type your name.
A, d, d, i, e. Yay! good job
Now I must go edit photos says momma
Dorky, I know but we had a good time.
It is such a joy to be able to spend this time with my daughter at home -- while working at the same time. But then I had many many swim team photographs to edit, so after her visit to the "office" Addie and her daddy spent the afternoon together.
Footnote: We are in the works of re-designing my office space!! Yay! We are getting rid of the spare bed and dedicating the whole space to photography and crafts. Maybe even a new desk...hoping garage sales are good this weekend. And Sorry out of town guests...you'll just have to sleep on the couch or in JD's man cave in the basement.
