We need to let our hair down

I know I have been posting about PS a lot lately. I think she is having a tough time heading into the tween years because she has trouble fitting in. She hates High School Musical and Hannah Montana, which all of her friends are raving about right now. PS is obsessed with Harry Potter, and Tim Burton movies. (I'm a little concerned she's going to become a goth chick as a teen.)

Last night was BFF's birthday sleepover. The girls did karaoke and put on make-up and wash-out hair color. Except PS didn't. She said she was afraid I would be mad. I really don't understand why, I let her play with make-up at home. And that's the kind of stuff girls are supposed to do at slumber parties.

I think PS and I need to do something fun and a little wild together. I am pretty conservative and she is 1000 times worse. We are goody two-shoes. But I want her to know that she can be a good girl and still have fun. So what kind of wild and crazy things can I do with my 9 year old?

Ewww, and as I sit her about to publish I just noticed a half-eaten banana in the middle of the floor. Kids are gross. On what planet is it ok to leave a half-eaten anything in the floor? Especially a banana, that going to get all slimy and gooey.

You could die each other's hair with Kool Aid.

Dye. It's early.

I have never heard of using Kool Aid as hair dye. That sounds fun!
