Lily is getting it, it is the rest of us who are interested in the presents and pleasing others who probably aren't getting it.

I feel so lucky to read your posts! <br /><br />Everything you say about the birthday celebration is something I've experienced too. I love the Are You Sleeping to the age - Tootles still has no idea how old he is - it's 50-50 whether he will say "Four" (he's actually 5) or ignore whoever is asking completely - Look - Lily is a lady - she's just doing what comes naturally to us - she's six so she's cutting it in half... You know, like if I said I was 14.5 since clearly, I'm just 29... ;)<br /><br />The present opening was the same around here til just recently - now he rips through every present whether it's his or not - so there's something to be grateful for - Lily's not tearing open Emma's presents- yet!! <br /><br />Hope she had a great day at school and a nice big bit of "chocolate bread"!Karen V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02432239210579792788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6873182308469051103.post-69025146005359436592011-12-08T22:18:37.206-05:002011-12-08T22:18:37.206-05:00AW, Happy birthday, Lily!
