A day in the life.
First, start the day with a flip.
Then a bit of coloring.
Take a break from all the coloring when your hand gets tired.
And set up your kitchen in the garage. Work very hard washing all those dishes.
And then enjoy a little time in the sandbox.
Patiently wait all day, for your siblings to come home from school. Then play in the backyard all evening with your brother.
Have yourself a bath and some dinner.
And fall sound asleep the moment your head hits the pillow.
Because you worked really hard today.
At being four.

It never ceases to amaze me how much they can pack into one day ~ and when I look at everything I’ve accomplished, I feel like I did absolutely NOTHING!! And it takes me half an hour to an hour to fall asleep, too!!
She’s so cute! Awesome post, Lisa!

Precious! She appears to be taking it all VERY SERIOUSLY. And she is just about the cutest thing ever.

Makes you wish your days were that easy again. A hard day of coloring and playing in the sandbox is just what I need! :0)

She is absolutely ADORABLE. Sometimes I wish I could be four again, but then I realize that at four you don’t get to go to the store and buy your own chocolate whenver you want. So I guess I’m glad to be 34.

Awww, what a precious little sweetheart!! My daughter spent her afternoon yesterday in the sandbox….with water….which made mud. And then she tracked it all through the house. But she was happy! And most of the time, that’s all I care about.

How adorable the pictures of her are. I loved this sweet post. What a good mommy you are to post this for her. Kindergarten with her and all these fun things for her to do in two days time. Where do I sign you up for super mommy of the week?

thanks for your input- for those of us in our own little bubble- it’s good to know the thoughts of others, good thoughts especially and bad, i guess too, though those arn’t as much fun. anyway, i always welcome yours. and they’re always kind. thanks.

I found your blog from Boo Mama’s site and love it. Great pictures of your little girl’s day. I have a four year old daughter and her days seem similar.
