The little lady

Lily, who couldn't possibly do a single thing wrong (especially in her father's eyes) is a little mother. She walks around the house finding things to mother. Even if they don't want to be mothered, "Watch out Duke!"



She carefully tucks in whatever precious items she finds along her travels. A toy cell phone, favorite books, mismatched socks she likes, princess laptop, purse filled with markers (which Chad informed me that our children were all spoiled because of their privilege of having and using markers! Of course he never had such fine extravagances as a child, thus I am remedying this and running straight away to Target to buy the 500 pack of markers. I mean, we don't want them to lash out when they become adults, like he did here.)and of course, baby.





Lily is also replicating what she views as a "mothers attire" by not brushing her hair and walking around practically all day in her pajamas. Only to change when leaving the house necessitates it, and then the only difference in the attire is a hair rubber band holds back the mess of hair and she is now wearing a bra.
