She wants change
I suppose people have the right to be individuals, but some days I wish I had a dd more like me! I'm basically a contented kind of person. Routine is just fine with me. Being at home and having time to do the things I need/want to do is just fine with me. (Well ok, I have time to do the things I need to do, but being a mom, my wants are usually swallowed up by the needs of my family.) But the Lord blessed me with a daughter who is different from me. A daughter for whom contentment is not as easily attained. Now to figure out how to balance her wants with the needs of the rest of the family.

Ch-ch-changes... sorry, couldn't resist.
I'm sorry you guys are having some "growing pains", but this is a great opportunity for everyone in learning how to respectfully accomodate the needs of others, right? Now you've got me curious what changes she's after!
I find that I need to shake things up a bit from time to time to keep myself happy. When I was younger I would completely rearrange my bedroom every few months (I do this to a lesser extent as an adult). I also have to stop myself from completely overhauling our hs methods every spring. I get bored, and it's my special challenge to find ways to combat that without causing everyone else too much upheaval.
Good luck!
New to your blog. You are describing our kids! There are so much I learn from our entrusted treasures from God. Enjoy the beautiful Spring!
