She came to me this afternoon and asked if she could go to the mall with her new friend (just moved in down the street), and I told her no. See, I don't know her new friend's parents. We've met in passing, but never really talked. And while I realize twelve is almost old enough to hang out at the mall Keep Reading >>>
The 10 Things I Need My Daughter To Remember As She Grows Up
I never realized how surreal it would feel to watch my daughter grow up. One day she's a tiny little infant, dancing around the house in cute little tutu's, with bows as big as her head holding back her hair...before I know it, she'll be asking for the keys to drive to the movies with her friends. It's not fair how fast the time goes by. And I never realized how much I would ache realizing that she needs me less and less. She might not need me to cut the crusts off her bread anymore, but there are still 10 things I need my daughter to remember as she grows up... The 10 Things I Need My Keep Reading >>>
