Surviving Prom

So i was a prom mom last year...i liked being a prom mom..My oldest Jordan went, much to our disbelief..I never thought she would , was almost resigned to the fact that she wouldnt..So when she came to me and told me she was going i was thrilled..We did the whole nine yards..the dress the nails the hair the jewellery , it was a good day ...She even let me take photos(which never happens) and i do believe there might have been a smile or two..Jordan had an absolute blast...not at prom but at the after party in wasaga..saw lots of photos of this , i do believe this might have been the time she booted me off her facebook friends list..and put me on a need to know basis..not sure...Anyways so here we are again..its prom.!!!! No not Madisons but Madison would like to attend the after party in wasaga beach with her best friend Megan...It is Megans prom..she is leaving next year and so im kinda torn on whether i should let her go ..The beginning of the week i was like absolutely not lol and now im like hmmm well maybe..Megans mom seemed quite confident that Megan would look out for Madi and honestly i am quite confident she would too..Im not stupid , i know theres underage drinking, and stupid behavior, and Im not one of those parents with their head in the sand thinking my daughter wont partake in any stupidness that goes on..she will, its Madi she always acts first thinks later... Its just we kind of got her on track with everything after her confidence had been squashed and she was filled with way to much self doubt..Megan amongst other people helped her with that...So i unno do i let her go?? Would I have gone at 16?? Yes i would have gone at 16..i had a boyfriend that played in the N.H.L at 16 , guranteed i was probably worse places...Did it teach me anything...? yes it taught me how to handle myself with all sorts of people in all sorts of situations and it taught me adaptability...So yes i guess i should let her go..it better not turn around and bite me in the A** tomorrow though...I also have to say , she made me proud yesterday when she brought her friend Megan in and single handidly did her prom hair and makeup..thought she was biting off more than she could chew but she proved me wrong..Megan looked beautiful and Madison was happy to be a part of her day
