My Large will be 15 next week. She's a good kid but I could do with a bit less drama. My medium (12 in 2 more weeks) is starting to hit puberty- already! Teenage girls I know- I was one once- but boys! Those are for my husband....<br />Hang in there, I hope it dries out for you. We had your kind of seemingly never-ending rain last year.<br />JudyJudy Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121300109427407095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-65955227900051178002009-05-06T14:56:00.000-05:002009-05-06T14:56:00.000-05:00Thanks for today ~ I needed a deep breath of fresh...Thanks for today ~ I needed a deep breath of fresh country air. Came home to carnage - pups got a hold of chickens. They are now awaiting a pick up to go somewhere else. Sorry to hear about Large. I am right there with my middle one.Melissa ~ Mom to 6https://www.blogger.com/profile/02298290484388042867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-18292083727558556222009-05-06T11:42:00.000-05:002009-05-06T11:42:00.000-05:00I'm sorry you are having trouble with Large! Teen...I'm sorry you are having trouble with Large! Teens. I was very lucky to have two girls that didn't challenge very much. Both are nice young women now.<br /><br />I am soooo sick of the rain now! I'm thinking of farming rice this year, and the mushrooms (not doubt inedible!) are everywhere. The birds are even trying to move into the house!<br /><br />Having said that, i will probably be praying for rain later in the summer! No making me happy!!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807732436038472698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-5448365280543971702009-05-06T10:17:00.000-05:002009-05-06T10:17:00.000-05:00Argh...teenagers!

That time I did, and it was the last! (see my halo? I still wer it)HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28663723.post-47545398233717926812009-05-06T08:54:00.000-05:002009-05-06T08:54:00.000-05:00My Small is now 14, and I find myself in the wonde...My Small is now 14, and I find myself in the wonderment of teen maintenance (again...and for the last time with one of my own) I work with teens, but there's something always a bit "different" with one of the home units. I find my own to most often be a joy...but there's something about that teen stretch, and it can be a trial at times...and playing the role of the the one who has to toe the line can be especially no fun. Take care, Phelan...I guess this is just to say that I can relate.The Foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06962641109795032438noreply@blogger.com
