Sleeping Beauty was out of school one day to adjust her retainer and fix her broken tooth (that extreme dance story told here), so we stopped at the public library after her appointment. While looking for another book, I came across the intriguing book Have a new teenager by Friday : from mouthy and moody to respectful and responsible in 5 days.
"Look, Babe!" I said to Sleeping Beauty, "This looks like a great book. I think I will get it." She rolled her eyes. Well, not mouthy, but clearly, we have some issues that could be helped by this book, right? We continued on to the next aisle to find my other book, where SB took a book from the shelf, and with a coy smile said, "Look, Mom! I think I should get this book."
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Caring for Aging Parents.
Oh, touche, Babe, touche. :)
