My 9 year old started asking about sleepover. She was allowed by her dad to sleepover at her cousin's house since she was 6. Now, she had been asked by her friend from school for a sleepover party. This is different. It's hard to say Yes and just permit her, it's always coupled with fear of what might happen to my little girl away from home and at night at that. On the other hand, it's hard to say NO to my little girl for I know she will be disappointed, so I'm just playing it by ear for my hubby to decide if she will be allowed to sleepover at Caitlyn's house. I've met Caitlyn's mom at Nikki's 8th bday and Caitlyn invited Nikki at her 8th b-day as well. Pretty nice family, but what hesitates me is the fact that Nikki is going to be away from home (Caitlyn's house is about 5 miles from us).
Parenting is hard. Parenting is a challenge. Parenting is rewarding. Parenting is trust. Parenting is fear. Parenting is happiness beyond compare. Parenting is TRUST IN GOD.
