We are never without entertainment in this house thanks to this little girl. She can be a yapping puppy dog one minute, a roaring lion the next and a raging dinosaur soon after. On more mellow days, she can be a princess or a prince depending on her older sisters' directions or a mommy or a baby. Her imagination never seems to stop.
