<<<<<And I cut holes under the arms of my dressier tops and all my jackets so

Do you have someone stitch them so that the fabric doesn't fray? We usually try

to just pull h's shirt over her seat belt, but she also hasn't expressed

much concern about it showing. She is expressing irritation with trying to find

cool clothes that fit right, so I'm loving these conversations.

Right now our biggest debate is over make-up and hair. I said that she could

start wearing a little makeup to school when she started Jr. High (7th grade)

because some of her friends started last year (5th grade) and I didn't find that

appropriate. Well, now that's coming up quickly and I'm absolutely aware that

she doesn't think I'm *cool* enough to assist with hair and makeup. The best

idea I have right now is to find a responsible high school student and pay

$100/month for her to come in the mornings and help h with the girly

primping stuff after her toileting/dressing is done.

Any opinions about this? Is it going to far to pay someone to help with these

things?

So it's not going too far then? The funny thing is that I could do the EXACT

same thing as someone younger and it wouldn't be cool if I did it. I get it

though. I can't imagine NOT being horrified when I was 12 if my Mom wanted to do

something to my hair. She was just so uncool *LOL*

I think ultimately it would help me, too. I don't really have the extra time

it's going to take every morning to flat iron and otherwise style her hair and

apply even a little bit of makeup. Having someone come in and help lets h

feel less dependant on me and more " in style " AND allows us to streamline the

morning routine.

I just don't want to be overindulgant either!
