I get frustrated a lot of the time with Allary because I have such a hard time trying to get her to sing songs like the alphabet or twinkle twinkle little star or anything really. She gets mad at me and tells me, "No, Mom, that's not how it goes." And she goes off into her own rendition of some made-up song. It's cute and I try to put aside the frustration by realizing what a creative thinker she is. She's been really into pretending the past little while. Again, she is super creative and imaginative, but there is a part of me that is a little weirded out by her imaginary friends. I can't tell you how many times she has freaked out because I sat or stepped on one of her "friends." I wonder, are these imaginary friends a result of a healthy active imagination... or a by-product of moving to a place where she has no friends or other children her age around? (sigh) Sometimes I think the isolation is getting to us both.
Lately, she loves to make up her own stories. Most of her stories include a princess, a monster, and a prince. Here is a video of my little creative story-teller:

I love the look on her face after the prince gives her a kiss! What a cutie! I loved the story. :)
Too CUTE!!! Maddy used to make up LONG songs at betime that she would want us to sing back to her! As long as we got the beginning and end right, she let us flub through the middle. She is still very creative. I'm sure Allary will always tend towards creative things as well.
What a little princess you have! I am glad that she loves her mommy! I love her facial expressions too.
That is so adorable! I love the video... Allary did a great job telling the story, I bet Erik would love to hear it!
so cute!! She is such a good story teller! I don't think there is anything wrong with a huge imagination!! Prop's to you for allowing her to self play and teach herself! It's wonderful! Just think, what if all she did was watch tv!
