Brendan & Lori O'Gara

I laughed way to hard about this quote.

“I thought raising teenagers would be like those goofy old Brady Bunch episodes about curfews, acne and dating. It’s not. It’s more like Survivor meets Dateline – hang in there and don’t murder anyone.”

I wish I knew who wrote it. I would laugh and cry with them. Raising teenagers is the most difficult thing I have ever attempted. I spend a lot of time trying to stay calm, crying, praying, laughing, and groaning.

I have amazing kids. They are smart and beautiful. Being their mom is a challenge for me, however, being a teenager is stressful for them.

Hopefully together we will survive the next six years without too much mayhem.
