I often think to myself that E is older than her 3.5 years. Some of the things she comes up with I never expected to hear until she'd hit her teenage years.
Take this morning, for example, when she woke up sneezing. Desperately hanging onto the hope that it's not another cold, I blamed the flowers she has in her room at the moment and told her that it would probably be best that she didn't sleep with them in her room. It was a calm and matter of fact statement, made with no intention other than to remove anything that might be making her sneeze. I was astounded at her reaction. She put her little hands on where she seems to believe her hips are - a little bit below her armpits - turned on her heels and flew out of her room saying, 'Mom, you've ruined my life!'
Wow! Drama Queen! I imagine we'll hear that many more times over the next 18 years or so!
