Flora

For quite some time now Lily has had an imaginary friend/daughter/sister named Flora. Every day Lily regales us with elaborate stories about Flora. You will not believe all the crazy things Flora does. Our girl has quite an active imagination!! I never know what to expect when Lily says, "Mommy, you're not going to believe what Flora did!!"

Not only can Flora walk on the ceiling, talk to animals, and fly airplanes she is also Lily's alter ego. Flora gets to eat dessert even if she doesn't eat a good dinner, Flora can use a sharp knife, and Flora doesn't have to hold hands when she crosses the street. Let's just say I'm learning a lot about what Lily wishes she could do based on what Flora "does".

Oh. By the way, if you are wondering where Lily came up with Flora's name..it's not a product of her extremely active imagination. It's the name of one of the characters in Lily's Angelina Ballerina books. That Flora is not nearly as adventurous as Lily's Flora. Trust me.
