Funhouse

Tomorrow is one of those braking points.  My oldest daughter hits 13.  That can take your breath like the chill in the pool that opens in April.  Shocking at first, but you have to get used to it and adapt.  It's just hard for me to say.  She will be fine.  It's amazing watching your children grow along their path to adulthood.  You hope you give them the guidance they need.  So much of life is how you deal with situations both good and bad.  I just want the best for both my daughters.  The world is a scary palace when you are 13.  Not so much scary as mysterious.   Sometimes you have to find your way through the darkness.
