My daughter bought this really cute notebook the other day--she is just like me about writing and documenting everything about her life. :) She wrote about her crush trying to hold her hand, and she let me read it. I am loving this openness right now! I know that the day will come when she will hide her diaries and journals from me--she likes me to read them now, but I am sure she will begin hiding them from me in the near future. Oh, how I enjoy the young and innocent days of teen life--they become not so innocent way too quickly, so I am going to enjoy every last moment of it. My 13 year old daughter is not extremely mature or immature--I am glad that she isn't growing up TOO fast (although her body did!!)--and I am also glad that she isn't too childlike to blend in with her peers (that can cause social issues)--she is slowly moving through maturity at a good pace. I am sad that the little girl years are gone but glad that the grown woman days are not yet here. This is truly the BEST stage of the teen years--the sweet ones before things get really tough--I will miss them when they are gone! :)
