She would just cry over nothing and said she didn't know why, she just felt like crying. Their hormones are starting to go crazy. She didn't get her period for a few more years- but the PMSy type behavior came well before that!Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747924428311146781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28730015.post-25429601617004516432008-03-13T19:48:00.000-08:002008-03-13T19:48:00.000-08:00GREAT photos!!!!

For me home schooling, when people ask, it is one year at a time. We don't know what the future will be, or how our kids will be so we just go as we can. They are a joy to teach when they are willing and it is great Madison is having such a good time with it. As for Kenzie, I think you are right, and you would know. My older two developed later, in fact my 13 year old isn't there yet, perhaps when she gains 5 pounds and weighs in at 100 pounds. She is 5'5" and so scrawny but normal for her. They say girls can start pre-puberty things at 6 with their emotions and it doesn't go regularly so it is more difficult to tell. They start taking a different shape by then, having hips a little more and a waistline unlike the boys. I would give her B vitamins and Vitamin D to help her feel better if she is dragging about a bit during those moody times. Her body is probably developing and she might need a few extra pick me up vitamins to supplement what she is getting in her food. My 13 year old has been a little that way in her life, and the vitamins have helped balance her. I am no doctor, so look into it, it may help. And ultimately, it is more difficult for her at her age to temper her temper so it is also a matter of teaching her tools to cope with the feelings. Obviously you would see if it goes beyond those kind of emotions and get her checked for depression if it seems bad or very consistent. You know your kids well and will figure it out pretty quick and fight if there is a fight to be had.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28730015.post-5392777862442051592008-03-08T08:00:00.006-09:002008-03-08T08:00:00.006-09:00Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww a new camera!!!! =) I need ...Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww a new camera!!!! =) I need a new camera!!!! <BR/><BR/>I hope all goes well with the PMS'ing 9 year old...ya know...I can't really remember "ME" at 9 either?!?!
