It seems they grow up waaaay too fast now. I think that's the problem. When I was a teen we were so overly protected ,and I was green. LOLBut now nothing is wrong, it's everyone else's fault,very catty with each other. It's pitiful how some kids are picked on. I'm glad Autumn has a good self image,cause if she didn't when they try to take her down, she just has the Edward phhffttt attitude. LOL
It's such a different world. I can't believe the change since my daughter graduated,and neither can she.

hahaha Yeah, some people I have heard say they think it's wrong to make them say Ma'am. WTH? If we didn't use ma'am and sir and thank you and please, we heard about it. Now people don't even try to teach it. I always tell them good manners will go a long way in life.
I wouldn't trade mine either,honey. I got my last doll when I was 12. Yep! A babay doll, and my sister ,too. We played with them faithfullt, too. Jump rope, paper dolls, I'm older,so you may not remember them LOLBut we played. Now if they aren't “dating” (hahaha) at 12
OMG! Thank God Autumn has a level head. She thinks its so stupid for her friends to say they're going to be together forever. She cracks me up(That's an eye-roller for her).
Oh, I remember the braids and dog ears and the long curls. LOL Things have really really changed—-some for the good— a lot not so good.

That is cool. Sounds awesome.
