Where did my baby go?
Seems just yesterday you were toddling, smiling with your toothless grin.
Now you sleep in. ย Hormones raging. And you growled at me this morning.
It’s harder to like you now – but the love is still there.

I’m sure that my mother feels this way and I’m 50! ๐
Haha. Mine too.
Yes, I’m sure that’s true.
I’m just waiting for this to happen with my girls; for them to grow up before my eyes. It seems to happen slowly, yet all at once.
It’s amazing how quickly it seems to happen.
S/he is still in there. What you hope is that they live long enough to grow up and mellow out and then you get them back. That’s what i’ve been through with mine.
I hope so. They’re good kids generally.
The joys of teenagers! (Though mine are still toddling & can be pretty grumpy too!)
I have a grumpy toddler too.
Love this micro-story. I feel the pit in my stomach as I read it… My children are still young, but it is going WAY TOO FAST…
WAY TOO FAST.
Every parent can relate to this! Beautifully (and efficiently) said. It would take me 1100 words to summon that emotion.
Thanks Anna!
This is what I hear from my friends who have teenagers. Challenging times ๐
ahhhh the “joys” of teenagers – fortunately they eventually grow into wonderful adults x
Lol. Yes they do.
I know this is why people have third, fourth and fifth babies.
Yes. Fresh baby smell lessens the impact of teen angst.
Ohhh bless your boots. Tough when the attitudes start (I say with authority, because it was tough on my mum when mine did)
Yes. My poor mother. And yours. Bless them both.

So much emotion in so few works. Seriously well written.
Thank you.
