Just a thought

  This past weekend, I had planned a surprise party for my daughter,
but in the end, it did not go as planned, and we ended up with only 2 guests, and lots of left over food.
  She was dissapointed and I was angry and so upset, that I ended in tears.  The funny part was, that she came over to comfort me, instead of my comforting her! 
   And she taught me to just forgive and let go, and to enjoy the moment, with her and count the blessings we have.
   I cannot believe she is growing up so fast!  Yet, in the end, as she gets closer to becoming a full time teenager, I am not sure I look forward to that period, alone!
   Mind you, she is already asking about having a boyfriend, and she wants a cell phone, and a facebook profile, and so on!  I have kept my head in the game and have stated that until she turns 18 years of age, and once she gets a job of her own, can she have an I Phone, by all means!  And facebook is out of the question!  I mean, the latest news reports of parents posting pictures of their kids, binded up in tape, or holding a gun, which yes, is not much really, but then what about the fact, that some people are even posting naked pictures of themselves!
   I also want to avoid having her bullied online, besides being bullied in school.  Yet, I know, I cannot keep her from any of these things, less hold her hostage, but I want what is best for her, as most parents want right?
  So, is this wrong of me to do?
     She thinks I am old school, and crazy, which I am but good crazy I say!
        She will always be my baby, wether she likes it or not, but for now, keeping the boys at bay is becoming my new mission.
     I need to get a bat, and maybe a few baseballs, just in case....
            Please do not worry, I promise to not hurt any boy that comes up to ask her out ;)  Just want to make sure he knows, what his boundaries are with her, and what I will expect of him.
            Ah, I cannot wait to go pick her up and head on home, to another evening of what will we be having for dinner and more boy talk!
                  Peace,
