Dang. What in the barnyard-livin’, truck-drivin’, T-shirt-wearin’, country-croonin’, cuzzin-cussin’, doggone tarnation is this? Photo of the week? Could be photo of the year, don’t you think?

Decoding Teenagers

November 9, 2016

I call upstairs to my two teenagers, “Dinner is ready.” I am in the kitchen and I make note that the clock on the microwave reads 6:15 p.m.. I don't get a response from either one. So I try again. “Dinner is ready,” I call again, a little more loudly. Time on the microwave now reads 6:20 p.m. I still have gotten no response as I wait patiently. I realize I have two options. I can either get really mad or I can stay calm and go upstairs in person and tell my teens that dinner is ready. I know they are both on their phones, aren’t they always? On this particular day, as I am making my way up to their rooms, a memory takes shape in my mind and makes me laugh out loud. When was the last time that happened? I can't wait to tell them the story at dinner. If we ever make it there.
