Motherhood Ups and Downs (Lulu)

This is why I call Cody my BIG gray hair!!! Yes I know that he is 16.....and yes I DO remember what its like to be that age.....but that doesnt mean I am ready for what that age brings!!!!

So he has his girlfriend over and my little gray hair is being a pest, as usual, and wont leave them alone....so he asks if they can go into his room. Of course I lay down the rules about the door having to be open and all that cuz again....I do remember those days!!! After awhile I notice that it is just wayyyyy to quiet! She's a jabber jaws just like I am so I know that if I cant hear her talking then something else must be occupying her time.

I walk into his doorway and what do I find? The 2 of them in the middle of a realllllly heavy makeout session...(yes the clothes were still on for the 100th time). I just cleared my throat and watched them jump to opposite sides of the room! I know this is normal for the age and all but that doesnt make it any easier for a mother to witness!!! But I do try to be one of those parents who doesnt fly off the handle over those things cuz then what....oh yeah he'd just clam up and never talk and I would never have a clue about my kid!

So I did the best thing I could think of to do.....

Let the embarrassment be punishment enough!! I told ALL the girlz (or otherwize known as all the moms) and now he knows he's gonna get harrassed by them ALL!!!! hehehe I really loved that part of it all! And of course I really enjoyed all the sucking up he's doing now!! He still cant look me in the eye without turning 100 shades of red! I never yelled or showed that I wanted to cry cuz my baby is growing up.

I soooooo dont think I am ready to deal with any more stages.....can we just stop time and never let them grow?
