Blog Challenge #3

When did you know you were a grown-up?

That's a really tough question. Until recently I don't know that I'd ever had a point in time where I'd felt 100% grown up.

I've had several moments in the last month where I found myself saying or thinking something that probably would have embarrassed me or made me roll my eyes at my parents had they said it. Each time I can imagine Madison giving me the same look I used to give my parents, and I find myself realizing that now I am a parent - I am a grown-up.

For example:

- High school students are KIDS - not adults like I used to think I was in high school.
- I find myself wanting to yell at the neighbors to keep it down when they're partying past 9pm.

At least you're young enough to let them party until 9pm. By 7:30, I'm talking about calling the cops.

I am O.L.D.
