TeenAge Rebellion
I knew Peace would rebel. It's what a teenager does. I didn't think though that there would be anything too bad that she would do though.
I didn't think her rebelling would hurt. I thought I was prepared for her to pull away and find her own likes and dislikes.
But I was wrong. I'm not ready for this.
My beautiful perfect daughter told me last night Halloween is no longer her favorite holiday, Christmas is.
She likes Christmas more than Halloween?!?! How can this be? Where did I go wrong? The costumes and the haunted houses - the birthday - all the orange! And she turns her back on it, to play in the shiny lights of Christmas. Is she going to make me put up a tree!?! What if she wants fake snow on the floor? What if she wants to do Christmas Cards? How can I use my eyeballs and skull cups for Christmas?
It's a dark dark day. I knew things were going too good to be true.
