Hello, New to this board..

I might have posted here before. It seems familiar but I am getting soooo senile, I swear. I also post on a couple other boards so I've probably seen some of you on other boards. Anyway, to introduce myself...My name is Karen. I am a wahm to 3 girls. My oldest, Dalia, just turned 11 and has started going thru that incredibly mature and sweet one minute to little devil the next stage(YEAH,Lucky me,lol) She is in 6th grade and has decided that she wants to wear a bra and shave her legs now which is nice since she has very dark thick hair on her legs. But now she said that since I showed her how to shave her legs, I need to show her how to "use a feminine product" in case she needs it. I'm trying to think of how to show her that without putting myself in an embarrassing position,lol. My other 2 girls, Sasha and Blake are 8 and 7. The three of them together are a big handful. They are all strongwilled girls who are so very different from each other that they tend to rub each other wrong, which is typical sibling behavior. Sasha and Blake especially love to push their big sisters buttons and make her lose her temper which makes for some interesting times around here. They are all good girls, though, for the most part, and I look forward to seeing them mature and grow and hopefully I will emerge from my parenting adventure with my sanity still intact.

I have a daughter that just started wearing a bra. not too noticable but there. She needs to shave her legs but I still think she way too young. She does not show me that she is ready to do just that yet. So thank goodness. take care

Dalia's hair in very dark on her legs. My dh is Mexican and while she doesn't totally have his coloring, her hair is dark. My poor 8 yr old has a totally hairy back. I have no idea WHAT she is going to do with that when she is older! I shudder to think about her having to wax it. Dalia doesn't have much reason to wear a bra yet, either but it's good to get them used to it before there is an urgent need for it, imo. It does show with some of her shirts that she is starting to develop.
