Show & Tell: Girly-girl Tomboy
Tessa is as thrilled to climb trees and engage in swordplay as she is to put on fake fingernails and find just the right shade of lipstick for a self-choreographed dance show.
This photo may not do justice, but she’s put a gold headband on her baseball cap.
I love my zest-for-lifey daughter!

I love it! Very like my oldest niece, also, who has just come into her girly-girl nature, but has a tomboy soul. This is a great photo.

Very cool! I was a tomboy too.

The best combination in my opinion! What better way to get chased by the boys than to keep up with them!

Cool Style!

I love your daughter’s style!

Inside her vast collection of purses, do you ever find toads and slingshots in addition to the makeup and hairbrushes?

Last time I saw Tessa, she asked me, “Are you a tomboy or a girly-girl?”
I answered, “both.”
It looks like she is too.
Here’s to climbing trees with painted fingernails and make-up!

She’s versatile and adaptive! She’ll go far. Like her mommy.

That’s very cute.
[Reply]
Hehe! Very cute
Nothing wrong with having the best of both worlds!

I love that she embraces both extremes!! You have a very well rounded girl on your hands.
