I told Kelly last night that I had complained to my mom that the goose recently stated she is not a little girl anymore and should not be treated as such especially in public. Though this request is expected, she also stated that public display of affection needs to be toned down as well. What?? I'm so used to the hand-holding, kiss-you-in-the-forehead thing, put-my-arm-around-you kind.. and now it needs to be in check?? Dangit! My little girl isn't a little girl anymore. I didn't think it would be this soon but it was going to happen one way or another. I suppose I can live with that. Mom stated that Uli had gone thru the same thing when Ina was this age. Though it had been a couple of years for him, its only my first couple of months. Her advice was to basically deal with it. There is no stopping the goose' growing. Man, this is one heck of a transition for me..
