where does the time go?

Sage is so advanced, she may have achieved something like premature immaturity. She knows how to scoff and toss her hair dismissively. She now has twin career goals — to be a rock star and a cheerleader. And she's started carrying around a little black purse (an old binoculars case, actually) full of headbands, combs, sunglasses, etc., which she calls "my teenager bag." Maybe by the time she's 15 she'll be acting like an adult. Yes, that's definitely what's going to happen.
