I don't know the answers but am hoping loving them and always listening, acknowledging their emotions and nurturing their self-esteem will help. Actually I'm praying it will xxElisa {With Grace and Eve}https://www.blogger.com/profile/11416451148055700239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187678194891123194.post-60230741893171873802013-01-16T22:53:11.939+08:002013-01-16T22:53:11.939+08:00My first born...

And searching for positive role models.<br />Best book I read was Celebrating Girls: Nurturing and Empowering Our Daughters, by Virginia Beane Rutter<br />If you can get hold of a copy Shar, it is seriously life changing. <br /><br />she's so beautiful. Makes me ache. My little girl is 17 now.

Because part of me would dearly love a girl, for all of the magic and wonder of having a daughter and then there is this nagging part of me that just worries so much about everything you have mentioned here... and more. My parents have always said I caused them more worry than my 6 brothers put together... I think it's a mild exaggeration. And I was actually a pretty good teenager too.<br />I guess like anything you've got to enjoy life for the here and now, try to instil as much confidence and sense of self-respect as possible and have faith that Missi will do herself and you proud. I am certain she will. She is SO adorable! xoAll For Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151973819133926868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187678194891123194.post-51262569625679915412013-01-16T18:05:50.305+08:002013-01-16T18:05:50.305+08:00I hear you.
