I am usually very good at managing my expectations.
Usually.
After Augie took his extended vacation at school after his exams,
I was more than thrilled to have him home.
For about an hour.
Now I pretty much spend my time parentexting.™
Isn't that a good word?
And my boy is such a chatter box.
Not.
And The Bird?
Pretty much the same.
They've been in Vermont since Saturday.
They'll be back for New Year's black eyed peas.
Then back to Vermont they go.
Sigh.
I think I'll go get a new hole punch so I can have something to do....
And isn't this last question what every mother wants to read?
As she is getting ready for bed?
Gah.

LMAO!
God, this makes me laugh - it is so much like my own kids. Isn't being a mom wonderful?!
I'm feelin' the love;)
*snicker* She sounds like me with my snowboarding "incident."
I love your new word. So appropriate for this day and age. So - did you find out the story behind falling on her head with a helmet on?
I'm feelin' the same way. Son left this morning (in my car) for Colorado ski trip. Asked him to check in every 3 or 4 hours during the drive. He said I'm whining again. :)
Kids! You can borrow my fancy schmancy 3 hole punch any time you want!
Psh. If she was wearing her helmet she's fine. If she fell on her face, that would be a whole different story.
Oh I am laughing so hard, I am sorry ... and I am loving Parentexting™
Can you ask her if she's seen my scissors?
so happy i don't have to deal with texting and parenting :)
Does she have my new mascara??
Umm, I hate to be the one to break it to you, but as the mother of four kids that moved away to go to college, I feel somewhat qualified.
They flew the nest! And, kids text all day long with their friends, but keep it simple with Mom.
they are just messin with you mama.
tee heee...
I think I would rather have zero information than little snippets.
That's why we get more gray hair as they get older.
I think I like it better than "OK Mom!" (door closing)
<><
Your conversations sound about like mine!!
Oh, my Lord. That last question was a scary one. And love the new word you made up.
This is so familiar.......I swear I've age ten years in one with a teenager.....and I'm on my fifth.....so that makes me...."OLD"! Your post makes me laugh....
I am laughing so hard....
Parentexting™ I. Just. Love. It.
Is this what I have to look forward to? Gah!
Hahaha! I love these Tuesday Texts!
The term parentexting is going to make you famous dude...Super Nanny for the college set...and please, whatever you do...DO NOT STOP this texting series...cracks me up all the time.
