I am not sure if I am ready for this next stage. I knew it was coming, we already had the other changes - bra, shaving legs, armpit hair.. lol!! She still wants me to tuck her in at night and give her a sloppy (kiss) and fluff her blankets as she is laying in bed.

I took a good long look at her today - she is going to be a beautiful young lady both outside and inside - she is growing up and it made me smile.

But still....why am I sitting here wanting to cry????
