What Little Girls Are Made Of

It’s amazing to me how very different my two daughters are.  Their personalities, their likes and dislikes, the way they handle any given situation. 

Blythe is an entertainer.  All eyes on her, please, and applause when appropriate. 



Wherever we go, people are drawn to her.  She’s just got this charismatic magnetism that makes it impossible for people to be around her and not smile.  She’s also tough as nails.  If she’s crying, there’s a damn good reason.

Alison is a quiet observer.  She thinks deeply and doesn’t like attention.  Her emotions are always worn on her sleeve, like it or not, and she’s incredibly sensitive. 



Once she’s been around people several dozen times, she’ll start to open up.  As long as they haven’t done anything loud or pushy or mean, or looked at her cross-eyed, that is.

Lately, though, she’s been coming out of her shell more often, and a little quicker.



She’s learning from her little sister that a tiny bit of attention has never killed anyone. 



Or has it
?
