Happy Birthday!

Wow. How time flies when you're getting old having fun!

My babies are seventeen today! SEVENTEEN. One more year until they're legally adults. That's scary.

Tally is the older, by 21 agonizing minutes. (Yes, I say it that way EVERY TIME. I'm the mom, I'm allowed.)

Then there's Chaos.

Two beautiful, smart, talented young women whom I'm proud to call my daughters.

Every parent should be so lucky.

Happy Birthday, Babies! I'm so proud of you. I love you very much.

    Just think, next year they'll be able to buy cigarettes and porn. Then again, who actually buys porn these days?

    Hope they have a great birthday.

    Congratulations on another year of not enforcing "I brought you into this world, and I can take you back out!"

    I kid, I kid. Happy birthday to the girls!

    Happy birthday to 'em both.

    And in addition to cigs and porn, they can also get cigars, join the military, buy long guns, ignore any city-imposed curfews, and run all the "dangerous" equipment at work (meat slicer, box crusher, so forth and so on).

    Ain't adulthood grand?

    I said Hi to your daughters. But then that might be creepy and stalkerish.

    But then that's kinda me anyway.

    if they are still in the UK then they are already legal to have sex, buy cigarrettes and a few other things... tis a nightmare... and I speak as mother of a 16year old in UK.However while they can have sex they can't watch it till they are 18 and they still have to ask to get married until they are 18 unless they go up to Scotland...

    Wow, I think everyone except me and Tally mentioned our birthdays. We're just too lazy to mention it (well I am, I can't speak for anyone else).
