My hyper-sensitive girl.

My first born was complaining to me again about the supposedly hideous picture that I had of her on my blog. She was upset that "the whole" world could see this picture and she how she hated the picture. I told her that she completely overestimates the interest "the whole" world actually has in my blog.
This was the photo she complained repeatedly about. I took this picture just three days before her 12th birthday in May. I think it is adorable, but I am just the big-loser-mom, so what do I know? She eventually wore me down, so I told her last Saturday I would take a new picture. She quickly scampered to her room and changed into a different outfit, while I scratched my head and tried to figure out how I could be so manipulated by her.

We ended up having a good time taking the pictures and here are a few of my favorites.
The end result is that she is now happy with the updated "Totally Tween" picture on my blog {happy being completely relative and rather fleeting for her}.

Oooh..my favorite is the black and white one as well and I love the new pic on your sidebar as well. I too am trying to adjust myself to the power and influence that my tween (SOON to be teen) is trying to wield.
