Teenagers


Teenagers are bad news right. Full of themselves, mean and crazy. Right?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong, so wrong
I have two teenagers and will soon have three and I think that they are so wonderful. I can think of so many situations where they have truly risen to the occasion, so to speak. They are not perfect, but than neither am I. They have their share of problems but than again so do I. I want to share with you a simple example. I was going to the hospital to check on a friend, who is in with her little girl. With me not being home that meant that one of my teens and the soon to be teen had to babysit. There were no complains and the teenager insisted that I took the rest of the homemade chocolate chip cookies that she made the night before. Little did my teen know that the little girl was not eating or drinking and the nurses and Mom were concerned. When the little one saw the cookies, she just started eating them like there was no problem at all, then she started on a banana. Hurray! Hurray for my friend's little one and Hurray for my teen. I think that without the doubt I have had the privilege to meet so many amazing teens.
