I try very hard to continue being a positive role model not for only my younger cousin Presley, but also for all girls her age. She is getting older, and she asks a lot more questions than she use to, but I continue to answer them honestly. I am so proud of the person she is growing to be, and I am even more amazed at the lessons she’s still teaching me.
I was at her house last weekend and she asked if I would help her pick out an outfit for school. I was super excited because she still thinks I’m cool and fashionable. We started talking and she mentioned a boy at her school that she likes as we were looking through her closet, so I had to give her a hard time and ask if she wanted to wear something cute because of him.
“Um, no I want to look cute for me, not boys,” she immediately responded with the upmost sincerity.
