My daughter and I were up early this morning and went down to breakfast by ourselves. I asked her what she wanted this morning and instead of telling me, she said:
Give me the beat boys and free my soul. I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
I was kind of surprised and I asked her where she learned that. She said, "the car, Pappa, the car taught it to me".
So amused.

Posted by: holly at July 25, 2004 11:20 PMAfter teaching teenagers for a year or so, I thought about putting off having kids for a while, but then I read your stories about yours--and I think "maybe it won't be such a bad thing to have kids".
(I used to want kids *alot* and then I started teaching, and realize I have many! Of course, they're all in that difficult puberty stage!)

Amanda, don't forget that I am mostly writing about the good moments!
