Darling Daughter

Darling Daughter

Reflecting...

The day she

was born

the perfect name?

We were torn

Ribbons

and lace

with an

angel’s face

sugar and spice

and everything nice...

OH REALLY?

Fast forward

threw the "tweens"

right into the

terrible teens!

The make-up

and hair

the fashion

despair

hormones and

mood swings

PMS and other

fun things

the looks and

the attitude

not an ounce

of gratitude

boyfriends

and curfew

doing things

they shouldn’t do

piercings and

tattoos on their bum

revealing clothes

her friends have some

 

school projects

and finals

my sanity

spirals

dear, oh dear

the Senior year

so full of cheer

graduation pictures

and supplies

watch how the

money flies

Senior skip day

and the alibi’s

Then comes the day

she walks across the stage

when the chaos is done

made it threw the first one...

I did enjoy!
It makes me feel good and it is comical in ways but so loving and so worth all the 'bad things' lol

My son is six, he's gone through the tweens I guess. I have the rest to look forward to I suppose.

Nice write.

my daughter is in the middle of her senior year now....it's already tapped out my resources lol. Not to mention the drain on my patience hahahaha And, the other is not that far behind...yet he is easier somehow...not as picky, not as moody....I'm thinking I'm glad the second one was a boy. lol. cute write....good thing we love them so much....keeps us from kicking their butts during those teen years!
