As if I wasn't worried enough about those teens years, she's gone and done this. Lily presented me with the above drawing, along with the description: "It's me standing in my closet with all of my beautiful shoes around."
We've been dealing with the eye rolls, the yelling, the foot stomping, the tantrums over having to wear anything but pink dresses and the general manic moodiness.
Now, at age 4, she's fantasizing about a walk-in closet lined with
colorful footwear? (And also, apparently, about going blond?)
Boarding school in Switzerland, anyone?

Now i know what to do with Lily when you come up in August. We will go shoe shopping! Maybe every day.
It is my own small obsession but didnt get full blown till i was much older. She is advanced and stong minded for her age which means trouble for you. oy.
Oh man you're screwed... Be afraid, be VERY afraid!
A girl after my own heart!!!
we tell our kids to follow their dreams...i'm all about helping lily with hers! you go girl!
I love it, a girl after my own heart.
First. It sorta kinda looks like your banner.
Second. Good Luck.
oh nooooooo! My advice (and you'll thank me for it): Never, under any circumstances, set foot in a store called "Limited Too."
Surfed over from "American in Norway" and I see some of my fav friends are already here! Glad I found you.
He he he! Did shee the SATC movie behind you back? ;)
hehehe, a girl after my own heart! Too bad I will never have it. I'd say you are in trouble, but really you already know that - i would say just hope she marries rich, very rich ;)
Oh, this is truly fabulous! I think they learn early...my little daughter is just 15 mos old and can't stay out of my closet. She wants to push the clothes around and play with my shoes. My son never once did that.
Our daughters can be room mates, mine is 6 now...but when she was 4 we "ruined her life" by not letting her have a second cookie before bed. Now a days, she just says "mom, seriously" and of course there was the time when she was 5 and told me she wanted to get "high lights in my hair and a side part with some layers"....Out. Of. A. 5. Year. Old. You are so screwed my friend, and I am right there with ya! :)
I hate shoes. I can't make hair look pretty. My baby girl is screwed if she thinks she's getting all 'girly' on me...
good luck!!!
