A real conversation I had with S today:

Me: S, time to get dressed!

S: Okay, mama. Time for a cute outfit!

I then proceed to help her get dressed. 

Me: Now, please sit down so I can do your hair.

S: No pig tails!

Me: I'll just do a topknot. No pigtails. 

I brush her hair back and out it into a topknot.

Me: All done!

S: (touches the top of her head) Oh, no! I need a hairbow!

Me: Okay, okay. I'll put one in. (I then place her hairbow on.)

S: (touches the top of her head again to make sure I had really done it) Thanks, mommy! I go look in the mirror!

She then runs out of her room and faces the full-length mirror in the hall. 

S: (gasps) Perfect! I ready to go now. (Runs to the door and waits for me.)

Sixteen is going to be realllll interesting.
