Our BIG GAL is 4!!

Lilly is officially a preschooler. We are having a great time with her. The terrible 3's are over! The tantrums were rough! Lilly is a very emotional child - at times it was tough for her to deal with all the emotions of a 3 year old. Few things that we love.
1.) Lilly loves Henry. She has started reaching out to him more to play- read to him and watch over him. She gives him loves - during his tantrums.
2.) Lilly is learning how to be a friend - she has a great group of girl friends at school- who are all quite bright- but at times can be a bit "verbally" rough on each other. She is learning how to talk without hurting feelings.
3.) Lilly has started to read- the Bob books of course. She is very interested in reading and writing.
4.) Lilly loves to try anything - cooking- t-ball - swimming- ballet.
5.) Lilly is very inquisitive. She ask more questions than anyone. At times - even her mom can be overwhelmed with the question. She is really trying to learn!
6.) Her "friends" are a big part of her life- real and stuffys. The stuffys include Donald (or otherwise known as Dunald by Lilly)- Minny- Micky- Tigger and Bitty (of course). Dunald somehow always gets into trouble. We learn so much about school and the residents through her school time.
7.) Lilly loves special time- one on one with her parents. This can include working on number- letters - reading or games. She is learning that she cannot always go first and not always win.
8.) Eating and cooking are some of the favorites- for all of us!
9.) She an artist! We pick her up at school and she has at least 5-10 pieces of new art from school each day.
10.) She is our big girl! We are constantly amazed with her loves - her smiles -her questions. And we don't want her to grow up!
