Lord grant me me the wisdom to deal with the fits of rage, the attempts on her brothers life and the ability to intervene when all the autistics in the house are on edge at the same time. Amen. Our Morgana has begun her journey into becoming a woman. I realized that this would be a challenge but DAMN! I had to get new clothes the other day for both of the kids. Fun but not. I have to do most of the clothes shopping without them with me so that entails letting my hands get as dry as humanly possible and touch every part of the fabric that would touch her body. If it doesn't feel comfortable on my dry hands it won't feel comfortable to her. So the chore of buying new bra's with actual cups was the most difficult part of this venture. I bought her many outfits, 4 pairs of shoes and 3 bra's which almost all needed to be returned for larger sizes. She is dealing well with the fact that she has to wear an over the shoulder boulder holder but there was one bra in particular that she was not jiving with. Of course it has to be the one that can be converted into a strapless. I informed her that this is one of the prices we have to pay for being born a female. She wasn't buying that. Not at all. Not one little bit. I then proceeded to inform her that one of the other prices would be much higher than expected. Yes, the dreaded "P" word. I feel like we are watching a ticking time bomb here people! We sit back and deal with the love/hate relationship with our "little" brother and having to remind her that she cannot hit, sell or kill the boy. Also the spending copious amounts of time in our room screaming like we are being murdered or something and for no apparent reason behind it. Now I am not a believer in astrology but if I were lets do the math. In my house is 2 Aries, born on the same day mind you, 1 Virgo, 1 Pisces and a Scorpio. I, being one of the Aries in question and being female, under the same roof as a Pisces female starting to go through puberty....Fire vs Water....logically speaking the water would put out the fire, but because I am older and her mother, this fire is gonna dry up waters attitude and that will be that. I hope. It is bad enough that I butt heads with Jason (the other Aries) a lot of times but then to be extinguished by my own daughters hormonal attitude...I don't think so! I am the HNWIC!! I must and will always reign Supreme!! I remind our little fish that she is only a princess in this house but I am the Queen!! Will this all be forgotten with she actually starts her period....maybe. Will this placement of rank in this house be challenged when she approaches her teen years....Maybe. But I must and will always reign Supreme!! Well, at least at my house. Unless my mother comes to visit or we visit her. Then my rank is...*Poof* A C'est La Vie.
