Now before you start congratulating me, please be sure to read all of this post.
The other day my 16 year old daughter came home from school and out of the blue she tells us this.
“Mom and Dad you’re going to be Grandparents.”
What on earth. Hu, how, when? Never mind the how. I know how, but what did you just say?
Then she replies this.
“Yah the resource teacher was able to switch my classes around for second semester and I’ll be taking parenting instead of drama, so it looks like I’ll bringing home one of those annoying dolls.”
Oh is that all? Talk about giving your mom a heart attack. Geez girl!
The last thing that I want to hear out of either of my teens mouth is mom and dad you are going to be grandparents.
I love my children unconditionally, and should there ever come a day that there is a teenage pregnancy in this house we would handle it. I mean what else can you do, but handle it.
But, please daughter watch how you word things and by the way I hope that Baby Think It Over cries and cries and cries. Muhahaha

I made my girls PROMISE to wait until I was 50 – they complied! LOL
I’m glad they are having these classes now!

I think its great for school to have these classes now so kids can think about what they are getting in to. Parenting is not a game and kids raising kids makes it worse. I’m glad you survived Rose hehe.

Is it really called, “Baby Think It Over”? Too funny and too appropriate. I love it.

Now that had me rolling on the floor laughing. Your face must have been a picture when she uttered those dreaded words

Hopefully the parenting class will help you to not have to hear the words for real.

Oh god.. I’ve seen those dolls. Trust me this could be worse

Whew! Maybe they should call them “Baby Give
‘Grandma’ Cardiac Arrest!”
Just stopped by to say that you have a very sweet son. I’ll bet his sister is a keeper too, despite her evil sense of humor!

Baby Think It Over! Oh my gosh, those things are the best! When I was in high school, kids had to carry around a sack of flour, but I hear that Baby Think It Over actually keeps track of how much it’s held, if it’s hit, etc. Serious stuff.
I’m loving your blog and the picture on your homepage is just beautiful. Where was it taken? I’m so glad you found me and look forward to meeting up again soon. Happy weekend!

I really want to take home one of those dolls, but I’m worried I’ll get sick of it after an hour!
