Wild Card

No mattter what you may think of your daughters, they are not you. When they are babies, and everyone is cooing and saying, "Oh she has her ___'s nose or her _____'s whatever, she is just her own self.

As much as I try to understand my own daughters, based on who I am as a woman/daughter, I can't get them to respond as I would or make the decisions they are faced with as I would have.

But I have raised them well. They are smart and unconflicted.

Let them be wild cards, in your life. Don't reel them in. Don't comment. Don't be surprised.

Let them be.
