Kids grow up too fast...
It has finally happened...my girls are interested in the kitchen, their hopechests and their ability to be future Godly women.  I cried a little bit, because they are not babies anymore, and I find myself trying to not bite my tongue when they are about to do something 'wrong'.  Now, I don't mean wrong as in using vinegar instead of cooking oil...I mean 'wrong' in comparison to the way I have been accustomed to do things over the years.

For instance, folding towels.  Mother is very particular about how towels are folded.  Now the girls are telling each other (when they think I can't hear them) "This is stupid...it's alot easier to fold them THIS way."  Or the way they fold the sheets.  Or how they make biscuits....

What am I going to do now?  My girls are growing up so fast...and to think they even have their own minds and opinions.  I guess the days of my best reason behind them doing things a certain way 'because I said so' are falling farther and farther away.

Sigh.

Well, at least eventually (I hope) there will be grandbabies.
