I miss him!!! and caroline in her necklaces - love it! She is all girl!!!<br />(Ellie loves jewels too - what is it with girls and their jewelry!?!?:))<br />Also - as to the rudeness... as you know, my child (the Senator) is an extreme extrovert... and yet we sometimes struggle with rudeness too - <br />maybe it's common to the age? I don't know but, like you, it's unacceptable and I'm not sure how to always handle it in front of others but I'm relieved to know I'm not alone in dealing with it!<br />Ours is Will sometimes not wanting to kiss or hug others (ie: family members) - we never want to force him to kiss or hug as he needs to own his body & we want him to not feel like he must do these things (for obvious reasons) but - saying "no thankyou" & offering a high five would be much better than exclaiming, "I don't want to - her face is scratchy!" <br />Oh - parenting - if we could control them like robots wouldn't it be so much easier? (& far less fun?)<br />love & miss you- kKatie - a Blessed Mommy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16044504759538226337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035820978488278634.post-57051649981079218192011-09-03T12:13:35.606-07:002011-09-03T12:13:35.606-07:00Oh, your children are simply gorgeous!

Before you know it, she will be in high school and will have a ton of friends and it will be hard to get a spot in her busy schedule. :-) One day we'll have to introduce our little ones! Dave and I just had our first little girl 11 days ago. Any advice you have for this age, send on through!! Again I love seeing and reading about your beautiful children!<br />Jennifer KingJennifer and Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09573387292214077836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035820978488278634.post-27676610198127012742011-09-03T11:11:31.799-07:002011-09-03T11:11:31.799-07:00Hi friend!

Believe it or not I am an extreme introvert. It was really bad when I was young like Caroline and I know it frustrated my very extroverted mother. But can I tell you that with mom's example and gentle teaching I learned how to like social situations and am convinced my life and the choices I have made are the better for having an extroverted mom for this introverted girl. God knows you are the perfect mom to teach your introverted little girl how to lead her best life!The Safranshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487619004744675143noreply@blogger.com
