She talked early and launched into full sentences just after her first birthday. Sometimes it's difficult to remember that in many ways she is still a child. She watches her world and interprets quickly. She's a music fan, plays violin, sings in chorus and is teaching herself the keyboard, playing by ear. She takes horseback lessons and loves taking care of horses. She is an exciting person, and she frequently forgets the roles we are in. "Who's the mom?", is my line when those times come. She either gets mad or sheepishly looks at me. I can swear we speak each other's thoughts sometimes and it does get confusing keeping track which role we're in, when you are so frequently on the same wavelength.
I was raised in a structured household and my daughter is the exact opposite. We struggle with that. We tend to be opposites, but our sense of humor is the same. I so grateful for her, honored that I get to be her mom. But I don't think I'm doing it right. Is there an owner's manual? :) |

| ROFL!!! no owners manual, just our hearts to listen to and our kids to lead us along. She sounds like a delightful young lady though :D |

| hahaha I often say, my son's owners manual got left in the womb. I'm hoping that when the new baby comes, both manuals will be delivered! lol |

| Yes, it's true. Sending my messages out to the "universe", and trusting that the "universe" to lend a hand when I need it. My will keeps winning, though. Coping with our differences is my biggest challenge. I just feel could be doing this better. |

communication is key, talk to your daughter and see what changes she would like to see and see if you can compromise. I have to do this with my oldest, if I just tell him how things are or try to direct him with out an explanation, he fights me tooth and nail.
You may be surprised that she is prolly very happy with the way things are though :) |

I like the title of your message. 'My daughter is an old soul'
A few weeks ago, I told my wife... 'I am worried our son carries a soul which is too heavy for him' .
