Thoughts on my Teenagers

Well as this days starts I feel the need to express about my teenagers...This may take a few minutes... Now as I parented through my younger years I was soft and sweet to my little darlings and I played and disciplined and giggled and well you get the picture. Now the I have 2 teenagers and one tweenager all that has went out the window because after the kind words and no response 5-10 times what comes next?, the yell and then the "well Mom you don't have to yell" See what I mean ?!? Everything I thought I knew about being a good parent went out the window...And then there is Gaige who tells me what he is doing (not ask) and informs me the he is going with his friend and his friends grandparents to Park City Mountain Bikeing for the entire UEA weekend...well you know I celebrated but then again I realized he didn't ask he just told...
Now I am not sure if you are familiar with the song "Hands in the Aire" Gaige hates it so that means that I like it right (just to make him mad) well then there is another song that Gaige likes that says "throw your hands in the er" He proceeds to tell he the other day that it is impossible for us to see eye to eye when I put my hands in the AIRE and he puts his in the ER...My life is a comedy sketch show... And I am afraid that this is just the beginning...
