Forging Paths.

Our big girl came home from school bearing the weight of some friendship troubles. Over dinner, the husband and I spent some time listening and sharing our perspectives. 

Yet, at the end of it, all we can truly do is listen and support her. It's hard to watch her struggle, but I think we have these conversations to let her know she's not alone and to empower her with skills she can use in such situations. She has to find her own way.

Our big boy, in other news, came down after lights out to ask me if he could sleep inside his duvet cover. And that's exactly where he is right now, snoring gently inside the duvet cover,with the duvet inner on top of him. I'll never understand what goes on in that head of his. 

Also finding their own paths: these three friends this morning.
