Girls, Girls, Girls

We had a fun day Wednesday night.  Okay,,,at least I did.  Lacey (6) decided she was ready for earrings.  It's been along time coming.  She's been very afraid to do it, so we let her decide when was right.  She was very excited and nervous at the same time.  After it was done she smiled for hours.  When she got ready for school today, she was very excited to show her friends.

On the other hand.......Kayla (12) got her brows waxed for the first time......not the experience I had planned for her.  She was nervous and excited before but after, was mad.  In my mind I'm thinking she would love it.  I love having mine done and I wanted to share that.  Not such a good idea!  I first got the idea when she and I were shopping for make-up the other day.  You know, your daughter is growing up and you can share so many new things with them.  Make-up, brow waxing, movies, shopping, haircuts, talking, etc.  Well I guess I jumped the gun here.  So sorry Kayla.......I'll have to think of other ways to bond with my daughter.  I think they look great.

done at same time, just in case she didn't like it (good thinking Julie and Laura)

that has to be the sadest face ever...so sorry sweety

We're forgiven for now......

Being a mom is hard.....knowing what to do and what not to do is difficult.  Our intentions are great....to us.  To our kids, we sometimes come across as being controlling or overbearing...but that's just not the case.  We're trying to share life experiences with them and build memories.  Anyway,  Motherhood and Wifehood(that's another story), is hit and miss.  We just keep trying.:):)
