Teenaged sass
So I have had the lovey opportunity to spend time with my family over the holiday weekend. Our family is in a very weird place right now. It is a time of partial transition for my parents. the transition from being crazy mad house parents to becoming empty nesters. The older boys; myself included,are all out of the house and married. The sisters are on missions. And then there is Meg.... Oh what a bundle of joy she has been to our family. She is constantly reminded of the fact that she is the baby and that is her permanent fixed position our family. She is ten years younger than her closest sibling. Somshe grew up with seven and sometimes even eight siblings. Life has been sorta strange for her. but to get to the point of my blog rather an drag on and on about how hard her life has been, she has turned twelve this year..... Need i say more? She has started the wonderful time in life where you know everything, or you think you do. This weekend was a strange flashback to my later high school years when my other two younger sisters started in on this fase of life. The constant whining backtalk ,stopming,drama and muttled comments were almost more than i could stand. And for a moment i was actually partially glad that i didnt have to spend more than a few days in close proximity to this venom queen. I was tempered by the sweet reminder of my wife though,..... The idea shared by my wife still haunt me...." hey, you were that age one too". Wow, talk about a reality check.... Man I do not miss those days.
