I've been going out with my daughter for lunch or coffee or whatever we feel like having, and I must say it's a lot of fun because she and I can talk about so many things. It's kind of a blessing because she tells me a lot of stuff I never even dreamed of telling MY mother about. And it also tests my endurance.
Maybe one of the reasons for this is that I've always told her that she can tell me anything - I may not always like what she has to say- but I'll listen and support her (even if I do throw a fit like any God-fearing mom should. After all, it's part of the job description).
We laugh and cry together. We watch movies (we love chick flicks) we share music, we get mad at each other, I give her a hard time, she gets on my nerves... but I wouldn't change any of it because I LOVE her and am enjoying every minute I get with her before she flies off. Time goes by soooo fast (*sigh*)
To those of you who have teenagers...all ican say to you are two words... GET INVOLVED!!!!
