OMG, she’s a genius! Funny, usually these things scare me, like teaching kids japanese via flashcards. But she seems to genuinely enjoy this exercise and is probably just a very bright kid. Bravo for Lily!

Although I’m completely impressed by little Lilly (I know people twice my age that couldn’t do that), it does come across as a little strange and circus-like to parade little Lilly in front of the flagrant beings that inhabit the internets.

My mum would hate this. She’d say the kid’s being “hot-housed.” She loves that phrase.
