The Drama Queen

Last night as I was tucking my 7-year old daughter into bed she asked me what bragging meant. After a brief explanation of the meaning she told me that she thought one of her friends did that a lot and she was going to do it to her so she would know how it felt. I did my best to explain to her that 2 wrongs don't make a right and if this girl were truly her friend she should be able to talk to her about her feelings. Right in the middle of all that she said to me - and I quote - "Mom, I just don't know what I'm going to do with my life." - Did I mention that she's 7!?! I asked what did she mean exactly; a new hobby, or what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said "Not like that I mean sometimes I get into trouble." As much as I love my daughter she's a drama queen. We went out to dinner last night and she ordered something she didn't like and of course drama ensued! The events at dinner were apparently life changing for a 7 year old! Can you imagine when she's 17? AAAAHHHHHHH!!
