Scared Spitless

I am heading off in a few moments to volunteer for the day with a bunch of scary high schoolers.

Challenge Day is being brought to our community and both of the large high schools are joining up for the event. My son went yesterday and came home teary eyed and worn out.

Teenagers scare me. Heck, teenagers scared me when I WAS a teenager. What is it about a bunch of teenagers in their hoodies and sneakers that can reduce a 35 year old woman to feeling like she is a bumbling idiot and not any cooler than she was as an awkward 13 year old.

The things I will do for my kids ....
