I didn't realize we kept secrets ....

It was inevitable, I guess. My daughter is 8. She always 'grows up' a little over summer. Not sure why, she just always seems to.

She had a blank stare this morning as we snuggled in my bed. I was playing with her hair and after a few minutes, I asked her what was on her mind.

She said nothing.So, I pressed, "What are you thinking about?"

"Mom, it's private. I can't tell you."

Nooooooooooooooooo!!!

Thought I would die! She still not giving it up and it's killing me (though I'm trying very hard not to act like it!)

So, I did the next best thing. I told the Lord to make her tell me (or He can, I'll take either).

Excuse me while I go have a good cry.

Oh man! My 8 year old has kept stuff from me too and not wanted to talk about it.

Drives me crazy! But, like you, I pretend it doesn't bother me. AH!!!

Hope you find out soon.

That's the worst. Luckily for me, my daughter and step-son are only a few months apart and tell each other EVERYTHING, so one of them always gives it away.

oh my. I was talking about this with a friend the other day. The secrets we used to keep form our parents. How I dread the day my kids are big enough to do this.

I hope you find out soon.
