Damn this girl drives me crazy all the time, she is
Always leaving her shit around, complaining about this or that,
Under her blankets hiding her phone or otherwise
Getting on my last nerve, really knows how to
Hurt my feelings…or her sister’s or her dad’s but
Then we always forgive her anyway because we know that
Even behind the mascara and the black outfits and the door slamming,
Real girl is in there and when she comes back to us this teen thing doesn’t
Seem so bad…she even seems like herself again, and she is pretty cool.

Awww love it! Saw your post in my Reader. As a daughter myself who knows how much my mom hated my teen years, I totally love this post haha. Maybe one day I’ll have my own daughter that will pay me back!

That’s sweet! I can identify with it, even though it has been many decades since I left home for school. The mother-daughter relationship is so important.

You have described my 13 yo son perfectly…. minus the mascara 🙂 Yet every once in awhile I see the sweet boy inside and all is forgiven. xo
