From her first word to speaking like a grown up

My Lilly is growing up faster than I care to admit. Her spelling words at school are things like agriculture and cultivated, she has the inflection and intonation of a kid twice her age(though thankfully not the attitude) and today used the word devious properly in a sentence. As in, "mommy, now Elowen has another devious plan. She decided it would be a good idea to draw on the horses to decorate them." Elowen is a friend from Allie'sclass who makes some interesting choices. She was scheduled to come over yesterday, but took it upon herself to cut bangs in her own hair at school, therefore forefiting her right to a playdate. Her Mom doesn't fool around, which I like, but it truly broke poor Allie's heart, which in turn broke mine. We are over it now, but yesterday was rough. Elowen and Allie have been playing all afternoon. They have done play doh, painting, necklace making, snacking, sidewalk chalk drawing, horse decorating (deviously), dressing up, and dancing. I think they are trying to make up for yesterday. I have a feeling they are going to be very good friends for a long time, as Allie has her fair share of sneaky shady plans, too. So to recap, Lilly is growing at breakneck speed, Yesterday sucked, and everything is fine now. I am sure things are going to get more interesting as time goes on.
