Girls

Why are we girls so crazy?!
This morning the Christian radio station was talking about the places single people should move to so they find a mate...?? What?! Seriously, sometimes I wonder how I am a nurse because I don't have much compassion. The more we focus on something the worse it is - "a watched pot never boils" concept. And I bet anyone if they are honest would have to admit that when life happens without force it is much better than what we plan ourselves. I know I am guilty and I have learned and continue to learn my lesson but sometimes those who are supposed to be leaders in the Christian community do things like the radio station this morning it makes me want to smack someone. A wise friend from years past wrote a wonderful, much more compassionate than I could write, posting about "finding" or rather being led to your prince.

And then just as a second to that I wanted to post the article about talking to little girls, maybe this will help with the prince issue later in life =) After reading this I have been much more conscious of what I say and realize it is hard for the first words out of my mouth to not be about how cute a little girl is. We have a little boy on the way but I don't want him to get the impression that looks are the most important for girls or boys.
