Dd started her period last night
She didn't say anything, just put her stuff in the washing machine, got a pad out if her drawer and went to bed
This morning she asked me what to do with her towel after her shower and got on with her day
But she's asked me if we can have a meal out tonight as other people do to celebrate her becoming a woman!!!
Do people do this?
I've reminded her that 12 isn't a woman, nicely obviously! She's getting her hair done this afternoon so I've already said I'll get her some hair bits
But a celebratory meal??? Wtf!
