I can relate... lol

If in the end, your child stays out of jail and holds down a job...you were successful.

Coffee through the nose!


Lol!

Been there.... done that...
Learned with the first one to tell the second and third that if wait until the last minute to tell me you need something, odds are you're not going to get it. Don't get me wrong, I still get what they need... but that little warning buys me more notice.

Every day in my house. LOL.

Priceless!

great post. had to deliver a forgotten backpack to my son just this morning.

I love it.

This is going to sound corny, but you'll miss this very thing when they are out of the house.

I do every day.

So much truth. Even the MFing poster board.

Our 2nd one is about to kill us and is only a 9th grader.

Good thing the liquor store is nearby.

I'm on the floor...

Yup.

My girls play competitive Volleyball, Tuesday we get to the gym for a match............I forgot my shoes! How in the mother trucking world do you forget SHOES!
