Because I'm Four

Lauren truly believes that since turning 4 this week, she has magically developed several new skills and abilities. So sweet, and so innocent, it just melts your heart :)


"Mommy, today [at school], the chalk was up high on that thing, and I was 4, and I was able to reach it!"


"Look they fit! Because I'm 4!", as she tried on her new sandals, a birthday present from Grandma.


And, she has been very eager to climb the rock-wall at the YMCA, where the minimum age requirement is 4. Today she got to climb it. She had a lot of fun, and made it about halfway up. Later, I said that with a little practice she could make it all the way to the top. She says "Yeah, maybe when I'm 5."
