I'm a Lady!

As you can imagine after three boys, I am so excited about dressing Sage with all the girls clothes out there. Knowing how fast they grow up I was determined to keep her a baby as long as I could and only dressed her in things age appropriate. (pink woolens lace and anything smocked) Paul used to say ," do you have to keep dressing her like that? poor kid looks like a doilie." Of course I thought , what would he know, she's an absolute vision! Until I came across this photo! What was I thinking!!
Back then I thought it was adorable , I look at it now and it borders on child abuse! (she has more layers on than an onion!)

(second photo)
I was so looking forward to her being this age so I could put her in little tartan skirts with opaque stockings and Mary Jane's....

I got her this outfit the other day , put it on her for the first time and couldn't believe how grown up she looked. With tears in my eyes I said "Sage , you are a beautiful little girl!"
and she says "Nope , in this skirt I am a layyydy."
and then proceeds to say that her other skirt (which we had tried on earlier ) was crap!
