I've been noticing some changes in my Big Chick. She longs for one on one time. We tend to do everything as a family and that's good, but to spend some quality time with the girls on their own...I think that's really important.
So we made a date night. She picked the place, and it just happened to be our favorite old haunt.
I took her shopping for some back to school clothes. She danced in front of the mirror and I felt like I was a kid all over again. She laughed with me and we whispered about the changes in her body. How is it that I'm old enough to have a daughter that's developing?? I'm trying not to freak, but it's FREAKING ME OUT!
She's still cool with used clothing and doesn't care about brands yet. Oh thank you Lord. I hope that never changes! Have you heard of Plato's closet? It's a consignment shop that has all kinds of teeny bopper clothing...the good stuff though. They are picky and it's just a great way to save money. Gotta love that.
She's grateful and holds my hand and thanks me. It almost hurts how much I love her...this growing blossoming daughter of mine. Yep I think one on one time is good. I'll be penciling this in often:)
Have a blessed day.
