being the mother of two boys and the grandmother of one boy, i can only imagine. My husband is one of seven kids and of all of his siblings children only one girl was born. My sister and I both had only boys.

Girls LOVE to get dressed up and go shopping...I took our only granddaughter and her friend shopping when they were 5...our GD loaned one of her purses to her friend, and they both had black tights and white Princess T-Shirts on... and away we went. I gave them each $5 to spend how ever they wanted, which was pretty funny.... I told them they had to go into at least 3 stores and check things out before they could buy anything....and they had to check prices so they would know what they could afford.... It was a wonderful day, and a great lesson for our granddaughter, because she was so used to having whatever she wanted that she had NO concept of what money was and how much anything was.... She got her start that day. It was a joy to me, because I got to see how little girls think.... Ours was wiley enough to figure out that maybe she had enough for 3 things, IF I could pay the tax (after I told her what it was....) LOL....! Then we went to get ice cream sundaes. What a BIG mess that was. Chocolate, whipped cream, ice cream, and sprinkles somehow all got deposited all over the shirts. But they both still remember that day.
