She has a conscience!

This morning Eliza brought me her Rapunzel doll to show me how she had done her hair. It was a braid with one of Eliza's elastic s at the bottom of it. She pointed out all of these details and I was just shocked she had done it. I, of course, went ga ga over it and told her how amazing she was. We hugged and giggled at her new-found talent. (That I hadn't taught her, which should have been my first clue! Oh, and she's 4).
So, a few hours later she comes up to me with her head hung in shame. I asked what was wrong and she said, "Lexi did it." I asked her, did what? And she told me all about Lexi braiding Rapunzels hair, not her. She was consumed with guilt and I was so proud of her for coming clean. We talked about honesty, and about forgiveness. It was a good moment.
And then when the boys got home from school, she was still trying to redeem herself. She said immediately, "boys! I lied to mommy today about Lexi doing Rapunzels hair." And then, she seemed to feel like that was sufficient and hasn't brought it up since. She is getting so big!
