I love having a teenager!

Tanner and I were texting after he got home from school today.  He asked me when I'd be home.  When I called later to talk to Lindsey, I also briefly talked to Tanner and let him know how touched I was that he'd missed me so much.  I got this in response (and you have to imagine this in an exasperated, frustrated, weary, fed-up-with-Dad voice):  "Dad, you're not funny!  You're just really annoying."

Jackpot!  Bingo!  Mission accomplished!  No one ever told me that having a fourteen-year-old around the house would be so much fun.

Don't they know that responses like the one you got just feed our passion to continue pushing their buttons? Well done, Dad. Well done.
