Just recently my eldest daughter (16) informed me that she had a “significant other”. I thought this was funny. Why chose the phrase significant other? For years now I have been telling her and her sister that they will not have boyfriends. They had other things to worry about other than boys. They are just not allowed to and that was that. No one out there was good enough fo my girls anyway. So I asked Sydney if she meant that she had a boyfriend and after much hesitation she said yeah. Well for a girl who has piano lessons, chess club, key club, band, orchestra, jazz band, CCD, and who knows whatever else she does she sure won’t have alot of time to devote to that boy. By the way did I mention he is called “that boy”? Any way just wanted to share. I have no words of wisdom on this for I was once a teenage girl. I remember. The only thing I can say about that is don’t do what I did. Other than that I am stuck. God I could really use your wisdom right now.
