Babygirl Gets Her Back Up...
I'm feeling ya on this one. I have an 18 year old Sr. girl and I impress upon her what life would be like with an unplanned pregnancy at this point in her life. So many girls at her school are pregnant-- freshmen on up. I have been brutally honest. That is a situation that I cannot deal with. We have done our job. We will be empty nesters come June (dropping her behind off at UF) and I don't have any plans for anyone but me and my man for the next 10 years! Yea, that's what I told both kids. I need 10 years before y'all come calling me asking me to babysit and contribute to care of your children. I need some ME time. My life has been about y'all for the last 21 years. For the record, my kids think my husband is a bit abrupt also. He doesn't care. He says he doing his job. If he don't, the world will.
