Living with teenagers

Ok, whoever said boys could not be as moody as girls needs to come spend a week at our place. Aid is 3 going on 16. We have heard it all. "Mom go away" "I said no!" "Mom watch out!" (when I am cleaning in front of the tv). He has even starting to try and get out of trouble when he's naughty. I will catch him doing something and he now responds, "Mom, I was just trying to...."

And then there is my darling husband. Today I found myself putting his things into the spare room (also known as his room, or the office, or the guest room...It's a room with an identity crisis), trying not to look at the growing and growing piles, and left a note on the door saying "Clean your room!"

I am getting a small glimpse into my future.
