Olivia had a pimple today. The same day that one of the boys asked her if she was going through puberty. He got sent to the principals's office and she kept a stiff upper lip until she broke down in tears when she returned home this afternoon. So we talked and I introduced her to cleansers, mud masks and spot creams. She told me she didn't want to grow up. I agreed but also asked what kind of pets she would have when she got older. She said a rhinoceros, a stegosaurus and a llama. I said she could certainly consider the first and the last but there are, unfortunately, limitations to being an adult. In this era. So she replaced the stegosaurus with a bird and added some fish - because cats and dogs are too "high maintenance."We are now best friends...at least until the next "wave" hits - which will probably be tomorrow morning. I am so in love with that girl. Hope she saves some room for me next to the llama because, as everyone knows, rhinos fart too much.
