I Can't Do Anything Right!

Every morning I do my 13 year old's hair. She has beautiful long brown hair. Everyday it's the same. She wants it in a pony tail. Well today I said how about wearing it down for a change. She seemed willing to do it and picked out a pretty barrette. When I was finished I thought she looked so pretty and grown up.

However, she went to the mirror and said she thought she looked horrible. I told her that wasn't the case, but if she wanted me to put it in a pony tail I had plenty of time to do that. She sat there and was on the verge of tears for about 15 minutes telling me she just didn't know what to do.

Now it was time to go. My husband was down the stairs and it was getting late. They had to leave to go to school. Now she decided to burst into tears. I couldn't believe it. My husband had no time for it and I felt horrible. I told her I would do a pony tail really quick. She couldn't even look at me. She grabbed her coat and got in the car. I feel horrible. Seriously how dare I try to make her look nice for school. I should have just done the pony tail. Now I have to worry about her all day. Honestly, she looked beautiful. I just hope someone tells her she looks nice. It will take some of the edge off. Bottom line. I can't do anything right.
