Today I got my buttons pushed! It's really not that hard sometimes. Someone decided to invite my son but not my daughter over because he has a little boy staying with him right now. Of course little boys only want to play with little boys. Let me be clear about that being sarcasm. Mind you, neither of the little boys had a say. Both the men decided this, including my soon to be ex husband. Also, they were doing some physical labor, and of course little girls can't do that. Again, sarcasm. You know, I have no interest in physical labor stuff. I prefer someone else to do that stuff for me, but don't ever, ever, ever, ever tell my girls they can't do something because they're girls or they're too small. That's a big hell no for me. Lulu really wanted to go and was very sad.
So we had some conversations, and I told her she can do anything she wants, but she will encounter people like this for much, if not all, of her life. We just have to ignore them and keep doing our thing. It's God awful painful to watch my girl get bullshit messages so early.
Sweet lil grasshopper in our party
She's a girl, too
Playing tangrams!
Oatmeal raisin cookies
Mud masks!
She wasn't into the mud, but she was digging the cucumbers
She had a good day anyway!
My girls can be anything they want! Girls are powerful and versatile, and it sure isn't men birthing babies!!
Much love, y’all!
