Fancy Nancy


Summer's very favorite book is called Fancy Nancy. She LOVES it. She asks me to read it every day and refers to Nancy as if she is a real person. Nancy is Summer's personal heroin. If Summer had a personal motto, it would be, "What would Fancy Nancy do". Nancy is a little girl who loves all things "fancy". Some things Summer has learned from this book: gold is fancier than yellow, patent leather is fancier than regular leather, Nancy gets everything with sprinkles on top because it is well, just fancier! Dresses are fancier than pants and the more bows in your hair the better. Summer frequently tries to get me to put matching bows in my hair to look fancier when we leave the house. Her favorite thing to do is to play dress up and to dance. We turn on the computer in the family room and crank up the music.

Summer went to a Fancy Nancy themed birthday party today. She was sooo excited! The invitation said to come dressed as Fancy Nancy. We got creative and used things she had in her closet. Her leotard was from her ballet class and her tutu from her ballet recital. Her very favorite part was her hair... with three fancy bows and the most fancy headband she owns. She thought that was pretty darn fancy.
