For young girls, starting your period is a weird time. 。
Your body is doing new stuff, you feel gross and moody and you feel like no one else in the world knows what you're going through. And although starting to menstruate is a natural thing, talking about it to friends or, especially, family, can be uncomfortable and embarrassing.。
For 12-year-old Brooke Lee, starting her period turned into a grand celebration when her mom Shelly threw her a "period party," equipped with a delicious cake that read, "Congrats on your period."。

Brooke's cousin, Autumn Jenkins, posted pictures of the bash on Twitter:。
Thanks for signing up! 。

spoke to Jenkins about Brooke's reaction to the bash.。
"Brooke wasn't embarrassed by the period party." she said. "She thought it was funny. It's kinda normal for our family to do something like this."。SEE ALSO:Menstruation-themed coloring book wants you to stop blushing about periods。
When asked about the impact these kinds of celebrations could have on the way periods and puberty are discussed, she said, "I think that this story teaches girls, and even guys, that periods aren't a horrible or embarrassing thing. Its a milestone and [a] big part of a girls life."。Brooke at her "period party"Credit: Ahhdum/twitter。
The overwhelming response has been shocking, Jenkins said. The reactions to her tweet keep her laughing and she hopes that everyone loves it.。

Getting your period is a natural, normal occurrence, and commemorating such an occasion shows young girls everywhere that they are not alone.。
