Hello Five

Today, Lyra turned five (a much anticipated day). To me, saying she's five feels so much older than four.

I went into her bedroom to wake her up and say "Happy Birthday" before I left for work. She said to me, "Now it's time for me to be five."

"What will you do now that you're five?" I asked.

"I don't know . . . . maybe still play on the playground, but more roughly."

I can't wait to see her surprise when she gets her new bike. A yellow one with stabilisers (training wheels). Cool!
