So It Begins

Lily got a really cute ladybug raincoat and boots a few years ago. She also got the matching umbrella, but that has long since bit the dust. Lily used to love wearing the ladybug set any time it rained.

It's raining today and I told her that she should wear her ladybug raincoat today. She has decided that it is too babyish for her and she won't wear it. She also won't wear Dora the Explorer shoes for the same reason. I tried to convince her that she could be a trendsetter since she is pretty popular. She wasn't buying it.

I guess it's a good thing for her to be outgrowing some of these little girl things as she gets used to school culture. We are not going to give in to all the fashion nonsense though. At least, we don't plan to.
