I feel like a rebel

[livinitup]

A parenting rebel. Today, my 6 year old kindergartener asked to wear lipstick to school and I * gasp * let her. A real Cinque lipstick she got for her Ice Show performance (bright pink from my bonus bag). It has a little attached wand for mascara, too.

I'm trying SO HARD to let her navigate these curiosities while she is little and eager for mom's advice rather than ban them and make them some rebellious thing to ignore me about at 13.

I'd judge me, if I didn't know this was so hard to navigate

I restrict makeup use to weekends but I am not judging

I bribe my kindergartner on a regular basis with being allowed to wear lipstick.

I would judge you if you were like "oh, honey- your pale lips really wash you out, try some Passion Pink." But not for this!
