I have a new theory. Well, I think I do. My family is not dysfunctional, it is UNDER CONSTRUCTION. :)
Remember way back when, when you use to give your parents grief and your mother would put her hands on her hips and tell you someday you will have a child and he will cause you twice as much grief as you are giving me? Well HAPPY DAY, mine has arrived. I have an almost 15 year old who thinks he knows everything. I guess I can't complain too much on that one because "I THOUGHT" I knew everything at that age too. Heck I am past 30 and still don't know it all. ((SHHHH don't tell my husband)) I can handle a lot and ignore a lot too, but it seems lately he really knows how to get under my skin. I have to stop falling into that trap, but it is really hard. What happened to that little boy who use to run his matchbox cars up and down my arms and legs and be so content? I want him back. I know this is a phase, but damn when does it end. All this talk about grown up things is enough to drive a parent insane.
Oh I know in a few years he will apologize for the hell he has put Eric and I through, and boy I can't wait for that day.
Still I miss this sweet little boy! :)
