"Yes" moment!

So it was raining this afternoon, and Lily wanted to go outside and play.  I told her we could not because it was raining, and even opened the back door to show her.  Well that backfired, and she wanted to go out even more!  I told her no a few more times, and then I thought "what the heck!"  We were home for the rest of the day, it was bath night, and I needed to work in the kitchen anyway (so I could easily keep an eye on her).  I told her she could go out, but she had to stay on the deck, and I made sure it was clear I was NOT going with her.....I know a true "Yes" moment would be me with her, but I did not!

So excited to be out there!

She thought it was such a treat!

Jumping for joy!

I love that she jumps when she gets excited!

My big girl!

Cecilia on the other hand said she would NOT be

going out either.  She was attending a ladybug party.

(her costume is a ladybug)

Her drawing.  This is Rachel and Kirsty,

the main characters from her fairy chapter books.

Out of no where, her drawings have

gotten pretty good recently...in my opinion at least!

Here is one she did at school the other day.
From L-R, me, my mom, Cecilia, my dad, and Christian.
Then Lucia in the front!
