I Will Survive Raising This Twelve-Year-Old

Some moments she’s my little princess. Other moments she’s the evil queen.

From the moment I heard the concept, I knew it would reach far beyond dads-to-be and grab onto everyone withing arm’s length.

I know that every cent spent is a minute earned burned, but she doesn’t.

Why do I have to physically stop myself from bringing in a plate of pizza bagels and taking a seat in the circle?

Sometimes within minutes of posting, I turn around and do the exact opposite thing in my own life. Yeah. Exact opposite. Hi Blog. I’m Hypocrite.

In this house, you say goodbye when you leave.

It’s not about the people around you. It’s about the person within you.

I can’t just lay in bed all day. I have kids and responsibilities. Even if I didn’t, I still can’t stay in bed all day.

Say their names and I see a snapshot from long ago. Their ages far exceed my my memories.

You don’t know what’s missing because you don’t even realize a piece should be there.
