The setting: a Chinese restaurant. We’ve finished eating, cracked our cookies and are sharing our fortunes.
Daughter: Oh, no! It says, “Welcome the change coming into your life!”
Me: That sounds ok. What change are you afraid of welcoming?
Daughter: Puberty!
Ha! To be fair, I can’t blame her.

Thanks. It’s so wonderful to me that she has an international following. Of course, she’d kill me if she knew! When I get the guts, I’ll start blogging some of the truly obscene things my son says. They are hilarious, but not very PC.

Oh, we’ve been through the trauma of how to hide her budding bubbies. There are so many things she just won’t wear anymore because either her nipples or her underwear would show. She’s supposed to learn human reproduction in the spring and she’s dreading it. Whenever I mention it, she walks around going “la la la la la la.”

Dealing with the identical issues here! Olivia seems to have about 100 questions per day for which my answer is, “I’ll tell you when you’re older.”

Abby wants nothing to do with the answers! She so shy and modest, I wonder how she’s going to handle the trip to the Robert Crown Center to learn about the birds and bees! I offered to let her stay home and have mom teach her, but she doesn’t want to do that either!
