Lily’s been a great big sister. She helps with her little brother. She tries to keep herself busy when I’m taking care of him.

All that can leave a little girl feeling just a tad neglected.

After Navy goes to bed, Lily gets special time. Since she’s older, and more mature, she gets to stay up a half hour later. During tonight’s time, I gave her a manicure and pedicure. She loves having her nails done, even if they don’t make it through the day.

I will let you in on a little secret: Planning a girls day out in the near future to surprise Lily. No boys allowed, not even baby brothers.
