My son I still have 5 years before he is 16. Maybe I will stay in Iraq for a little more time.

The "baby" of the bunch just headed off to school, driving herself there for the very first time. It's dark, cloudy and drizzling. Just to add to the enjoyment, she creamed a deer just about a week ago. I'm officially a nervous wreck. (Now THERE"S a poor choice of words )
I guess if I don't hear sirens for the next 20 minutes or so that'll be a good thing.

Ouch... I so do not miss the potty training days. I'd tell you a story or two but I don't want this to turn into a crappy thread.

Last summer she "made doodies" in her pool.
While her freind was in it with her.
Momma- what's floating in the water?
Everyone out NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think what I find most amazing is that seemingly "normal" adults can go from saying "take a piss", "*expletive deleted*it" and "crap" to "pee-pees" and "doodies".
280- I can't even imagine. I was a mess the first day that I dropped her off at Nursery School and left her there.....Jen wouldn't let me sit on the front lawn and wait......sigh.....

I believe that's called a "fecal accident" in pool terminology. I recall dating a girl with a young son once. I was taking young son for a little float in the lake after lunch. He was like 2. Young son decided it was time to empty his stomach into the lake. I did my best to swim out of range of the spreading pool of barf.
Didn't feel much like swimming after that.

Watching them move out to their own apartment in town is one thing, but leaving them behind when you move to another state is another.
I moved from Arizona to Maryland in Nov and left my 23 year old son and 20 year old daughter behind. My 19 year old came with me.
What was even harder was moving their momma in Feb from AZ to MD. That was a tough one.
In the end we can only hope we raised them the best we could. They'll always be a part of our lives but not like it was back when they were babies.
It hurts but in time your heart will mend. You'll also cherrish them phone calls.

I'm figuring Abby will run Mike over and then back up over him again to see what it was she ran over.
I expect Mike will have a permanent place on her front bumper....right next to the Bogie sticker.....
i got a taste of that fear when the 6 year old rolled her 4 wheeler wasn't as bad as the pony rolling over on her though
You gotta be pretty good to roll a pony.....glad to hear she's OK.....

Okay so she's peed in the training potty like 10 times today. No poop. I know as soon as I stick a pull-up on her she's going to crap in it.
Yes, there most certainly will be.

Hello dear,
I did want to tell you something. Cecil is going to ask your little girl out to dinner. Then maybe a movie. They really like each other a lot and if this happens, Dana, Bubba, and me will be right there with them. I don't see the harm in letting this happen.
You have to let her grow up and date boys dear. It will be ok.
Love you and miss you.
Always,
Em

You bet it is. I am a single dad of a 5 yo girl. Try that on for size. When we walked out of the mens room women would act outraged that she had been in there, the fellas where none to happy when I would call female on deck. I even had quite the discussion with mall security once on being a single parent. Evidently if a female takes a little boy into the bathroom its no big deal, if a guy does it he must have alterior motive.
She looks likes Shirley Temple so I have already mounted the shotgun above the front door.

Single Dad here, too. My daughter is 9 1/2. I deal with the stuff you mentioned all too often. I try to be civil but at times I'm just not in the mood, and folks have gotten an earful.
Wanna get some dirty looks? Go to the store and buy a package of little girl's underwear. Alone.

That's pretty awful.
I've bought little girl underwear alone, but not as the only item in the cart.
