I like the idea of just an addition.

5 & 2

7 (as @Carol Dee suggests, a ½ decade +2).

Red what did you name this 13 02oz bundle of pain

I really made points with my mother-in-law there. I named him Robert after DH's father and her husband, Manley after his paternal grandfather (I fell in love with his photo, but settled for DH since Manley was deceased) and Byrns after his father/my DH.

He really wasn't a pain until he was about 16 1/2 years old. Sigh! Now he's human (almost 40) and a blessing once again.

At 16 you think you know every thing about life Ha Ha

At 16 most young people refuse to admit that they have parents, much less acknowledge them being near-by. My 16 YO would see me in the school halls and leave his room to give me a hug in front of God and all. I lost that one during the summer that he was 16 1/2. Took way too long to find the loving one again, but luckily for me he was merely hiding he didn't really go anywhere. He's taught his children to give hugs for any (or even no) occasion like he did back then.

I like hugs, I hug, my sons hug, DH hugs, Grandsons hug. NO ONE is safe. LOL So glad he is back.

For many teenagers, a mother's house is like a museum. It is static, they think. They, who are in a constant state of change.

Their parents bring a near deathlike quality to life, as they would imagine it. And yet, so often, teenagers are like little birds, flitting about. Their parents may not want them to take wing and actually leave, recognizing the risk and selfish in their loneliness. But, so many young people can afford to preen themselves in a gilded cage and do, essentially nothing - not even questing beyond the yard except for brief and fluttering flights to the 7-11; or to settle on another's cage for a brief moment; or gather in a tight noisy flock, usually squabbling.

And, such is growing up for them.

I moved out of parent's house on my 18 birthday, would have moved out much sooner but was told, try and police would drag me home. My mother thinking it might stop me, told me I had to leave all bedroom furniture home.
