Crying over spilled milk

I sat back down and resumed my work while she cleaned up her mess, unprompted and unassisted, which doesn’t happen often.

She didn’t clean up all of the milk, and she doesn’t seem to understand where the paper towels should end up when the job is finished, but it’s progress.
