The one with the teenager

We were fortunate enough to have my sister Heidi and her husband Mike, and 16 (or 17?!) year old daughter (Jenica) come into town for a quick over-night visit. We stayed up late Sunday, crammed in a quick Insanity workout in the morning, then hit the town for a quick lunch before they had to jet out. Jenica slept-in a while in the morning and my kids kept asking, "When is our cousin Jenica going to wake up?!" Heidi just told them, "She's a teenager!!"  On the way home from lunch, this conversation ensued:

Brooklyn: "Mom, is Jenica a teenager?"
Me: "Yup."
Brooklyn: "Mom, do teenagers like to sleep a lot?"
Me: "Yup."
Brooklyn: "Oh, so then YOU'RE a teenager too huh?!"
Me: "Yup, it's my youthful glow." lol

I guess I sleep a lot. Or would like to. :)  Funny girl.

I remember being a teenager and thinking I never slept. If only I had known then that 6am seminary has nothing on 4am kid puke! When my kids are older and complain of being tired, I plan on using the line, "you don't know tired until you can't tell me what day of the week it is."
