So I was getting in gma in-laws closet for shower day and was taken aback....my 11 yr old daughter has taken upon herself to start digging out all the clothes her GREAT gma has been hiding behind her bed(dementia,brain damage) AND putting together outfits and hanging them in gmas closet. I do have to say I'm tearing up as I type some days are so sh**ty and I want to just grab my girls and run but today, today makes me glad I've never acted on it and it's amazing that kids are so resilient and can be so selfless and caring and it makes me glad in so many ways that they are here to witness me giving of myself for a woman I surely didn't know very well to begin with and lightens my heart to know even tho things are going to get worse it very well may make my girls better stronger and more loving people when their grown. I hope this put a smile on someone else's face today like it did me. Have a wonderful day ladies n gents
You may have a budding clothing designer in your daughter. Encourage that creativity!
Way to go, Cheylily, and congratulations to you for such a special daughter and congratulations to her for reaching out to her grandmother!
HUGS all around.
