Those of you with girls will understand...

I have been dreading this day for such a long time...the day when I'd have to deal with a car full of screaming girls!! The girls were able to invite a friend along to their dance class last night so they each invited a girl friend. I have managed to keep from entertaining a bunch of girls for quite some time (although Ana and Mia have been asking for a couple of years now to invite friends to their birthday party) - explaining to them that their birthday is just so close to Thanksgiving so while they're young it's more important to spend their birthday's with their family and their friends are probably busy with their families too (and it's worked!!). But, I gave in and allowed them to invite a girl friend to dance. I don't think the first little girl was in the car for 2 minutes and they were all screaming, snorting, giggling, etc. Then we picked up the next little girl (who I thought was a shy little girl) and the screaming got worse!!! I kept thinking back to what it was like for my parents when I was younger and understood exactly why I only had ONE sleep over party! They had a wonderful time though, and really they were all well behaved. I even learned a thing or two - like who has a boyfriend (which the other two girls assured me that Ana and Mia DO NOT have a boyfriend!), and that boys are always the ones to kiss the girls - which I said "and we're not going to let boys kiss us, are we??" and they all screamed "NO, YUCK". Oh dear, I'm not ready for this. Ana and Mia had a lot of fun though and look forward to when they can spend some time with their friends again outside of school - to which I said "you can if they invite you to THEIR house"!!!
