What is to come....

So I hear this song on the radio a few months ago and I just think....WOW!!! This is cute! This woman really knows what it is like to have a teenage daughter. I smile and think I love this time now. It has its challenges, but 10 years from now will be quite a challenge. If our daughter is ANYTHING like me...and she is. We are going to be in for it. I wanted to do everything myself. I didn't need anyone's help for anything. I STILL have a hard time asking for help.
So here are the lyrics:
Martina McBride
I ain’t complainin’
But I’m tired, so I’m just sayin’
What I think
And if we’re being honest
Than honestly I think I need a drink

My baby’s growin’ up
She think’s she’s fallin’ all in love
And that I hate her
At seventeen, she’s just like me when I was seventeen
So I don’t blame her

[Bridge]
Do do do do
Do do do do
What are we gonna do?
Do do do do
Do do do do
What are we gonna do about it?

[Chorus]
Remember when we use to be
Everything they ever need
We had them believing we were cool
It’s like it happened over night
We’re always wrong, their always right
We use to be the one’s breakin’ the rules
Now we’re just mothers, we’re just fathers of
Teenage Daughters

She rolls her eye’s when I’m funny
But she’s sweet when she wants money and her freedom
Oh my god, she’s got a car
Swears they wont go far
And I wish I believed ‘em

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Their beautiful, wild and free
Everything we wish we could be
But their still crazy
Oh you know, the make us crazy

[Chorus]

Yeah Teenage Daughters

I ain’t complainin’
But I’m just tired, so I’m sayin’
What I think
If we’re being honest
Than honestly, I think I need a drink

The chorus at the end makes me smile because a lot of days I feel that way now and I can only hope that we have the "joy" of going through these years together. Because if I have learned anything this year its that you are not guaranteed ANYTHING. So I hope and pray for us to be able to experience this. :-)
