One of those days...

Today was one of those days. One of those days when you ask yourself what have we done? We have created a girl that expects people to treat her with the same kindness that she treats them, and to sincerely say they are sorry when they don't.

And so because of these expectations, today was one of those days where you see your daughter with her feelings hurt. You see her rightfully angry at the injustice and truly saddened by her options of response.

And your hands are tied, you have no recourse, you have no advise that is helpful, you can't make it all better.

The only thing you can do is give her a squeeze, look into her tear filled eyes and say "well, I love you!" And in your heart you fiercely pray that she will keep her heart of compassion, that she will not lose sight of empathy, that she will not be hardened, that she will always be so sweet......
