Life moves forward...with chocolate

The girls, (Monique and Alex) are almost 12 yrs old. Well, they have been invited to the beehive activities on Wednesday nights. I still am amazed that my little girl is going into Young Womens. Last night was very fun! We went out to the Legacy Chocolate Factory. There were 5 girls, including 'my girls'. Neesha Roylance made it so fun for them. Thank you Neesha! First they dipped these toffee & cashew squares and got to decorate them with sprinkles and glittery stuff. Then they made chocolate suckers. They used colored and flavored, chocolate and poured it into heart shaped molds with sticks for handles. Purple was grape and red was cherry. It was very yummy! But, they didn't stop there, oh no. The girls were told to pick out some ribbon for each of the suckers (the choices were endless and soooo very cute), and put them into a bag with the ribbon tied around it in a nice bow all ready to give to their 'valentine'. They were so sweet! Neesha out did herself, she said that you get sick of all the sweets when your around them lots; but I think that it might take me a long time to get tired of it. That toffee, wow, it would be a weakness...
I am getting a little taste of what its going to be like to have Monique in my class... I am a little worried, but also very excited . We are trying to balance an overbearing mother and a growing independent girl with a slight attitude. HELP...! any suggestions????
