We have hardly had any family time and it is starting to "wear" on us, especially Bailee. We have really tried to maintain a healthy balance for her. She needs our attention and support as well. She told me the other day that she wants her friends over to play. She reminded me that she needs the company of friends just like her brother. I quickly felt her need and took a break from ball today. Yes, i missed my 1st practice, but my relationship with my daughter is equal to my son. She explained to me in her most sweetest disposition, "Mom, girls want to have fun to". I took her and two friends to see KUNG FU PANDA. We then went to McDonalds to eat. It made my heart glad to see her and her friends talking. I let the girls sit at the table by themselves. I wanted to sit back and enjoy seeing her interact with them. As a mother, I want to be included in my children's realtionships with others. I am slowly realizing that I have to let her develop her own thoughts and opinions. I can be there to listen, but she has to think for herself, to grow into her own individual. The girls camped out in her room. They sang , danced and played Wi. I went and got them donuts this morning. Girls really do have alot of fun!
