[Miss M at 5]

My two daughters' birthdays are close together: the youngest was born on January 26, and the oldest on Valentine's Day (two years earlier). Yesterday, on her birthday, the older one woke up, slid out of bed, and ran immediately to the bathroom. She looked in the mirror.

"I don't look five," she said, disappointed.

I had to disagree. Come to think of it, though, I'm not sure what she was expecting.
