"<br /><br />Sing it, sister!!<br />I'm sitting here harmonizing.<br /><br />Happy Birthday to YOU... changes your whole life, doesn't it?<br /><br />Loved this post. I especially love the 'bad baby' (ack, that one bothers me too) 'good woman' comparison.<br /><br />Yes and yes.<br /><br />Have had similar discussions with the parents of one of 'my' kids. That the traits she has now, of standing up for herself and putting up with zero crap are very important and to encourage it, even if it's just a little inconvenient for the school.<br /><br />:)<br /><br />Thanks for this post.<br /><br />Good luck at Borders. Hope you meet a non-creepy friend.Amihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08353667980806676067noreply@blogger.com
