Today when I walked Lily into her pre K classroom, Ms. Olivia asked, "Did Lily tell you what she did last week?" She went on to explain that she'd had laryngitis and couldn't read to the class. So she asked Lily to do it. "Lily read about the solar system. She's like on a third grade reading level. She's astounding!" All the while Lily hugged me close and looked up at me, bursting with pride. I almost burst myself.
If you went back and looked at my prayer blog from last year, you'd see lots and lots and lots of prayers about whether to hold Lily back a year or send her ahead to kindergarten. (She would have been the youngest in the class, and at a disadvantage.) I opted to send her to the Primrose School for one last year of pre K, and I'm so glad that I did.
Here's a video of Lily before her bath the other night, dancing with her Littlest Pet Shops. I have a feeling that this is just how God meant for her to be--joyfully dancing around to her own little dance remix, sung out loud with all her might. I love watching her. Is that how He feels about us too?
