Things I've Learned From My 4 Year Old

I may have taught her to walk, talk, sign, count and print....but Rylee has taught me the most important life lessons.

TO BE CONFIDENT:
It's okay to wear red, blue, brown and purple all at the same time.

TO BE TRUE TO YOURSELF:
It's okay to say NO when you really, really, really don't want to do something.

TO BE FREE:
It's okay to dance, really funny, even in front of strangers.

TO GO AGAINST THE GRAIN:
It's okay to sit in the baby swing at the park...afterall, it is more comfy.

TO BE CREATIVE:
It's okay to paint, draw and glue for hours until you fall asleep on your art project.

TO HAVE A GOOD BODY IMAGE:
It's okay sometimes to eat a few cookies before supper.

TO GO BIG OR GO HOME:
If you have to burp, do it with gusto!

TO FIND FUN IN EVERY SITUATION:
Like humming Twinkle Twinkle Little Star during your timeout.

TO TRY NEW THINGS:
Like attempting to eat with socks on your hands.

TO DO EVERYTHING WITH A SMILE AND A GIGGLE:
Potty time does not need to be a mundane chore.

If only we would take our cues from the most innocent. They seem to have it ALL figured out!
