Just being a parent

Well I am trying to write every month since it is almost the end of March I better hurry and write something.
When your children are little you spend a lot of time wondering when they are going to grow up and start doing things for themselves, then one day you realize that you long for the days that they wanted your opinion and your help.
The reason you have children early on in life is when you get older you have said "no" so many times that if you are not careful you will forget to tell children that are still at home "no". sometimes though you do tell them no and they do it anyway.
Teenagers are Gods way of reminding you that you were once that young and had the same conversation with your parents.
When I was younger I new it all, when I had children I somehow forgot everything and then my children knew it all, as soon as they started having children of their own I again new it all.
With only two children still at home I long for the days when we loaded up the old rickety trailer and got to the Clark county fair, those were great times with the family.
Well maybe next month I will have something profound to say.
