You know you have a girlie girl when…
You know you have a girlie girl when... She goes to Rosh Hashana dinner with lipstick on her teeth; She says "gown" instead of down"; You lose sight of her in the mall and find her here: You can always spot her in her hiding spots because of her pink, sparkly shoes.

Gee, I really love you…
Today, my little girl and I had a mission on our hands: We had to pick up a very special dress for a very special someone's very special day. (ohemgeemybestieisgettingmarriedintwomonthsahhhhh!!!)
