When my daughter was a toddler,
she would wake up in the mornings
with a smile on her face that rivaled sunshine.
She would then spend the rest of the day running around
like a young and fiery comet that had lost its target site
and didn’t carry if it ever found it.
But, now she has become a teenager,
And of course, things have had to change...
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
Now upon awakening in the morning
instead of a smile that lit up the room
without benefit of sunshine ---
we are greeted by --
“But I don’t want to get up!!!!
Mixed with cold, stony silences…
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
Last year, when she turned twelve years old –
“But what do you mean that I’m not a teenager???”
On turning thirtee this year --
But I’m not thirteen until 2:35 in the afternoon.
After 2:35 P.M. --
I’m still not thirteen and I’m not a teenager!!
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
Her worst revelation thus far has been –
“What do you mean I have to listen to you?
But I’m a Teenager!
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
When choosing brassieres for the first time
at the lingerie store in Flemington –
“Why can’t I have them all in Dark Pink?
But it’s my favorite color!!
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
When can I have a telephone in my bedroom?
But I don’t know where my cell phone is?
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
I want an IPOD!
What do you mean I have to use
my allowance to pay for it?!
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
Okay, I’m a teenager,
But I’m not going to have any fun!!
When can I have tickets to a
Hannah Montana Concert?
FOR THERE’S A TEENAGER IN MY HOUSE &
HER MANY MOODS ARE WILD!!
