Lily is 6 years old



Lily you are 6 years old! You really have become a big kid this year. I almost forget that you were once a baby.

This is how I see you these days:

  • You started reading this year. You amaze me with the books you read. 
  • You are writing sentences. You use capital letters and punctuation. 
  • You are doing very well in Kindergarten. You have grown tremendously this year so far. 
  • You planned to marry Ryan from school, but now you tell me you will marry Logan. 
  • You wrote your first short story recently about two bears and a dog. 
  • You are currently missing your top front teeth. It's quite cute. You have lost 5 teeth so far.  
  • You let me "do" your hair now. I can finally put your hair in ponytails and pigtails. Your hair is getting quite long now too. 
  • You are hilarious! You laugh constantly and you like to tell jokes now. You are definitely a silly girl, but I love it. 
  • You are a great big sister. You play so well with Jack, he is your best friend. 
  • You like to tickle Jack. 
  • Your favorite games are: hide-and-go-seek, go-fish, chutes and ladders. 
  • You color/paint/draw everyday. It makes me happy to see your artwork and creativity. 
  • You ask at least 20 "what if" questions a day. See below
  • You still enjoy princesses, but your favorite is Hello Kitty.
  • You wish we could have a cat, but we both are allergic. 
  • Your favorite colors and pink and purple. 
I love you to the Moon and Back! You tell me you love me to Crystal Moon and back :) 
Thank you for being my little girl! I'm one lucky Mama!

What if the tooth fairy never came?
What if Jack had 100 teeth?
What if the Statue of Liberty had a best friend?
What if you had 100 friends?
What if you had 100 eyes?
What if we got 100 inches of snow? (she likes the number one hundred)
What if everything was red in this house?
What if we painted the moon a different color?
What if you had everything in your milk?
What if you ate a brain? (wha??)
What if  mirrors were impossible?
What if I put all my money from my piggy bank into my purse?
