I loved Maisa’s costumes combo of Buzz and Ladybug girl. She was truly unique and joyful at that age.

My Maisie who is the same age as Maisa wore 10+ pairs of underwear each day at that age and her sweatpants would bulge out over the layers and she would get marks around her legs from all the elastics. My daughter, her mom, would let her wear those and the All Day teachers would struggle with her to get them down every time she needed to go potty. No one made her feel bad about what she wore until she was ready to give wearing them up.

I think we cannot comprehend how different and difficult it is to grow up in the age of social media. I wish I had answers. The good news is that your dedication to lovingly talking about all these issues and whaat happened to Maisa will make a difference in this community. Continue to love others with all the love you have for Maisa and your family. Reach out to any of us who can help. You are loved. Betsy
