Peer Pressure

So, I think Punky has experienced her first bout with peer pressure. Lately, all she wants to wear is dresses...to school, to church, even just to play in around the house. Well, I have noticed at school that most if not all of the little girls are wearing dresses. I think she just wants to be like them, or they all conspired to be alike and wear them each day. Nevertheless, she is in dress mode, as well as make up mode. Anytime we go somewhere or someone is coming over, she has to run into my bathroom and put MAKEUP on!! I asked her why, and she said, "Mom, I HAVE to look beautiful!" I am now trying so hard to let her know that she IS beautiful without all of that stuff, just the way she is. She is only 4 year old!!! It has begun, and will probably never end.
