Why can't she stay little?

This song is dedicated to my lovely daughter, it's one of her favorites, and I just couldn't bring myself to put up Justin Bieber lol. I will forever have memories of road trips with her singing this song hehehe in fact she just came down and said "I love this song :)" And today mom is in memory mode. Why you may ask? Because my eight year old got out of the shower and said to me, mom I've got hair on my ninny. At first I said, no you don't. And she said I do let me dry off and I'll show you....sure enough....the kid has no arm pit hair, doesn't shave her legs, is eight far too young, but has hair on her ninny. So there went the massive text to all my girlfriends.....IS THIS NORMAL I asked lol. And then the OH MY GOD my baby!!!!! Why oh why? She's been kissing boys since before kindergarten and I've been crying in my beer ever since....

But puberty...am I ready? I really don't think so. I called her dad and told him it was indeed his fault..and I entirely blame him. After all I only have one type of gene for kid making, he provided the other...lol and he agreed. He after all told me they have mostly boys in their family and we expected a boy, and how I wish that he had to explain the facts of life and hair on the privates, not me lol.

but my friends are doing a great job of guiding me here. Calming me and assuring me I've got a few years before any major discussions need to happen. But i do have a curious kid who thinks it's funny that mom is freaking out. lol And I do have a great man who gave me a big hug last night as he laughed in my face and told me, honey, I'm sure glad that she's yours...lol Thanks babe....I had a great night last night :P

Now if only my child could go back to the stage of being rocked and bottle fed. Alas she starts third grade soon, she's growing up so fast...and I can't stop it.
