It’s been a year.
365 days filled with good and bad surprises.
And this Child? She’s resilient.
And this Mama? She’s learned more than she ever wanted about tween girls: the good, the bad and the lonely.
Onward to summer.
Onward to seventh grade.
Onward to I have absolutely no clue.

June 1, 2018 at 8:32 amMy word, she looks so grown up! My youngest just turned 13 and I was both sad and overjoyed that I don’t have any more little kids. As the mom of a 21 year old and a 17 year old, I can tell you that once they hit 13, the years zoom by faster than I can keep up.
You’re going to be fine – keep the communication open and you’ll both be better for it. <3
