New Years


Stage One

Enter Puberty Questions!!

You have seemed very interested in puberty and all the changes that happen as you approach the preteen years. 
We got you two books: 
Where did I come from?
And an American Girl book that explains the body changes that happens to girls. You have been very open with questions and I hope I continue to encourage you and keep our communication open. 

Friction

Things are not always easy between you and I lately. You think I do more for your brother and sister and don't always put you first..(in the latter case, you are right.. I have to balance between 3 kids, your dad, and your grandparents.)

You get mad when I tell you things you say are mean. I think you think I am picking on you, but really I just want you to grow into a truly kind person. I think I model that for you as best I can. In general, you are very kind. We need work when dealing with your siblings, especially with how you talk to Charlotte. It is improving and we are trying.
