Chronicle of a Drama Queen

My daughter is 5 years old and has an ever expanding vocabulary. It is very impressive to me that my five year old uses such phrases as "apparently", "vehicle", "actually", "FYI", and so on and so forth and she uses them in perfect context. Sometimes though she still has a little difficulty. I give her credit for trying and I thoroughly enjoy her faux pas. The other day, she had taken a spill in the driveway as she was excitedly running to greet her Daddy when he got home. Her sister and she were bolting out of the door , very much like two horses bolting out the gate at the races, when there was a flurry of legs, feet, and arms...all entangled, bringing the festivities to a screaching halt. Poor baby, she had road rash on her knees and elbows and her sister was miraculously fairly unscaethed. After , what seemed like hours of cleaning,bandaging , and kissing booboos. Through tear stained cheeks, with the utmost seriousness, my five year old looks at me and says, " Oh Mom! I hope I'm not going to look like this for very long. I can't go to Brianna's (my neice) CONVERSATION (confirmation) looking like THIS!!!!"
