Poor Navy. I only know this, because I dealt with the exact same thing when Scout turned 8, but she is getting her first little surge of hormones — and WE ALL KNOW IT! This girl cries at the drop of a dime. She whines more now, than she ever has. She is also extremely dramatic over everything. For a tough girl like Navy, I wasn’t sure that hormones would ever get the best of her…but they have.
But now that we have talked about the teeny, tiny amount of hormones she is getting, she has actually tried to manage it a bit better. I told her, that as soon as she realizes that it is her hormones doing the crying, to just sort things out in her head. So just the other morning, as she tripped, she started to bawl. (Keep in mind that this girl has never cried over pain.) Then I saw her realize that she wasn’t in any sort of pain, and then get up and brush herself off. And that is when I knew that she heard what I was saying, and together we can see a tiny light at the end of this tunnel.
