Isobel has moved on from her Puff the Magic Dragon obsession and is now onto a new Peter Paul and Mary song. It's one I stumbled upon on CD i got at the library and she LOVES it. She walks around saying "Ammer" and making the hand sign for more. I've been thinking lately about what it means to raise a girl right now. I was lucky enough to have a mother that helped me understand that all that media stuff (princesses, barbies etc) was pretty much garbage. That what is important really is on the inside. I guess I've been thinking about how I'm going to help Isobel navigate this "beauty at any cost" world we seem to live in. Something tells me she'll be 'hammering' it out pretty well on her own!
