Girlhood is having your mom paint your nails
girlhood is having your dad braid your hair on Tuesday before school
girlhood is holding in tears after getting your ears pierced at Claire’s this weekend
girlhood is going to school the next Monday and showing off your freshly pierced ears to all your friends
girlhood is wearing your best dress on holidays
girlhood is the first time your mom curls your hair
girlhood is growing out of your favorite clothes
girlhood is shopping for new clothes
girlhood is your first sleepover
girlhood is not getting invited to a sleepover
girlhood is losing your baby fat
girlhood is losing friends
girlhood is meeting new friends
girlhood is realizing those new friends are really mean
girlhood is seeing your favorite grandparents leave you
girlhood is always having extra tampons
girlhood is falling in love for the first time
girlhood is spending all your time with one person
girlhood is being the second option
girlhood is getting your heartbroken
girlhood is fighting with your parents
girlhood is fitting in with the wrong crowd
girlhood is crying yourself to sleep
girlhood is forming insecurities
girlhood is overcoming hardships
girlhood is idolizing your favorite celebritieis
girlhood is finally finding your people
girlhood is finally about being happy
girlhood is finally feeling confident in your own skin
girlhood is laughing with your best friends
girlhood is magical
