Owe to be Young AGAIN!

My little construction worker

OK, I just dropped my six year old off at school, she is now officially a first grader.  Six years going on sixteen!  She is now the offical “know-it-all”, as we all became when we entered into first grade!  She makes it known here at home that the world is her oyster, and if we’re lucky, she’ll share a piece of it with you, if she feels like…

My almost sixteen year old, is working feverishly (not really) to obtain his driving permit.  I apparently want him to get more then he does!  I’m now to the point of threatening him, daring to take his visits with his new girlfriend away if he doesn’t finish a chapter….Why can’t they all strive for independence?

 It’s funny, the six year old is so independent, and now that the other two are almost grown, and the oldest is 21, they are far from it? 

The 21 year old, well, she can’t seem to remove the cell phone further than 1 inch from her ear.  A new boy perhaps? Perhaps!  A new job perhaps? Nope, not today.

So, I’ve been told that you only need to ask your angels once, for what ever it is that you need assistance or guidance in,,,ok, I’ve asked once everday for assistance on how to be a good, patient, and thoughtful/compassionate, strong parent….Should I make that once every hour?
