Lily loves to pick out her own clothes and dress herself (with a tiny bit of help). Lily has a strong opinion about what she wants to wear and rarely waivers from it once she's decided.
Often during breakfast Lily will announce what she wants to wear for the day with declarations like...Today I'm going to wear a dress and tights!...or...Today feels like a jeans day! I think I find it so funny because Lily is so, so serious.
Lily also likes to brush her own hair and then decide what "hair pretty" to wear. I can often hear Lily in her room saying things like...No, I just wore that yesterday...or...I think I'll wear one of the clips Aunt Lala gave me...or...Now, where is that pink bow?
Today after Lily picked our her clothes and hair clip she stood admiring herself in the full length mirror. After several minutes she turned to me with a huge smile and said, "Oh Mommy, I'm as pretty as my big girl cousins!"
I couldn't agree with her more!
