Ok, I am sorry. Twice in a row now I am just stealing thoughts from someone else. But honestly, I am in the middle of cooking dinner and don't have time to write a well thought-out post at the moment. But I just read something fantastic that I just wish that every person that will ever interact with a little girl, including my daughter, will read.
Here it is. Enjoy: How to Talk to Little Girls

Both of us really enjoyed that article...John even wants to buy the book. While we talk to our oldest daughter in similar ways, it is difficult to get others to speak to her like this. Lately, Emma has been requesting to use the phone to call her family. This has been great because no one can say, "I LOVE your dress!" etc. She really has been conversing a lot about baseball games, soccer gear, trips to the pool, and whatever else enters her mind at the time! John was thinking we should start training Emma to accept compliments but to turn the conversation toward her reading, bike riding, etc.
