Teenagers

I just had fun changing the look of my blog so I figured I better write something new.



I hate school vacations. I wish there was a school that I could send my oldest daughter to that goes all year round. If she is unoccupid for any length of time it becomes impossible to control her. I came home from work yesterday to mom guess what was the highlight of my day from sean. He said sara starting his hair on fire. My poor husband was awoken from a sound sleep to "OH MY GOD MY HAIR IS ON FIRE" screams from sean. She says it was an accident and thats suppose to make it all better. She got grounded from going over to her friends house last night. She doesnt understand why. Um if we were not playing with the lighter in the first place like you have been told before the "accident" would never have happened. Then I finally got to sleep last night for the first time in many weeks and was out cold when the dog woke me up whining. This in itself is not unusual she some times need to go out to pee at 3 in the morning but she was acting nervous and whining and wouldnt come in. I thought I maybe should check the kids to make sure everybody was where they belong and sure enough sara was missing. So I went back to bed and went to sleep NOT> I sat up and waited for her to come back. 4:30am if you were wondering what time she snuck back in and I flipped on the light and she yelled at me. "What, I just went for a walk I couldn't sleep." I told her we would talk later as I was too pissed to think straight. She still doesn't understand why she is grounded. Her sense of reality is so out of whack its scary. She seems to think nothing of wandering around at 3 in the morning and that nothing will ever happen to her. And she doesn't understand why I couldn't just go back to bed. Now this is where that hand book would come in real handy right about now. Oh and the remote to pause her when she is yelling f$#@ you at me or my husband. Teenagers I don't know how I am going to survive the next 3 years with her. My husband won the can you top this story at work again last night at least with the hair on fire story. Our children never cease to amazing the lady's he works with. I love her very much and will appreciate her fire and hard headiness when she is 25 and out of the house and I wont have to worry about her but for now deep breath and duct tape.
