    My DH keeps buying bigger and "better" toys, especially now the kids are on their own. Who happened to turn out to be really great young people, at least we think so. 8-)
    Makes you tend to forget the bad teenyears, thank goodness!!

    My mom used to ask me when I was going to "grow up" all the time. Bless her heart, she passed away 7 years ago--I was 49, I'm not sure she ever got an answer.

    Raising teenagers is like trying to nail jello to a tree.

    When I was in the woodcraft business this was one of my best selling signs.... "Raising kids is like being pecked to death by a chicken"

    the Spanner Method is an easy solution to teens fighting over front seat. My cousin has 5 boys. This happened all the time so she took a spanner to the front seat and removed it. No seat, no arguments!
