You can start to see the adults that they will become which is wonderful. I love to see them developing their own style and it sounds as though your daughter is doing just fine!<BR/>My own daughter staggered home the other day with a box full of blue and white china that she had bought from a junk shop that was closing down. She had picked out really wonderful pieces and negotiated the price with the owner. I was so delighted that she had the knowledge and confidence to do this and will always treasure them. Then she went off to paint her nails bright pink...<BR/>AliceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8873936386745599407.post-34411575694222786822007-04-26T08:39:00.000+00:002007-04-26T08:39:00.000+00:00I worry about when my boys become teenagers, I wou...I worry about when my boys become teenagers, I would worry even more if they were girls- I do miss not being able to pass on my vinatge wear!Thanks for your comments, we really should meet up.

Even now my daughter (she is 6) will sneak a little lipgloss on her lips when we have to go out to a family function! Who'd have thought all the extra makeup we gave her to "play" with when she was 3 and 4 years old would become her "real" makeup at age 6! (By the way, she only "sneaks" out with pale lip gloss - I always make her wash the rest off!) heeheeCape Cod Washashorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07267024473330532083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8873936386745599407.post-83606817398236891702007-04-25T22:08:00.000+00:002007-04-25T22:08:00.000+00:00Hi KimAh yes, I remember it well!
