Yesterday was my oldest daughter’s 16th birthday.
I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking I must have been twelve when I had her.
Well, you’re right. I was twelve. It was 6th grade and I was in the girls’ locker room. We’d just finished running lines in the gym and I had to pee really bad. My mom always told me that when you’re in a public restroom you either A) put down toilet paper on the seat; B) hover over the toilet so your tooshy doesn’t touch; or C) hold it til you get home.
I chose to ignore her well intentioned advice and sat directly on the toilet seat.
And I got pregnant.
It was weird.
(OK, so I might have made up that first part)
Actually I was 24 when I got pregnant with my daughter.
But it’s weird to say that I have a sixteen year old daughter because *I* FEEL 16! And act 12!
So Happy Birthday, Sweet Presley. You may be getting older and taller than me, but remember this… I can still kick your ass.
I'm the cute one on the right.
Happy belated birthday!
I hope she had a happy birthday!!! You girls are pretty!
Tell her not to sit on toilet seats too, for gods sake.
Oh My Gosh! I have a 16 year old (turned in Dec.) and I was 12 when I had her! (problem is I also have a 24 year old so I was like 4 when I had her. Maybe I adopted her?
16 can be a fun age. But I wouldn’t know. I haven’t seen her since she got her license.
My “baby” turns 16 in April. I won’t say how old the other two are, but I was 10 years old. Compared to me, you had your daughter late in life. Kidding.
Aww, tell Pres I said happy birthday!
Oh my gosh, mine is only 13 and I still choose letting people think I was a really young slut over my real age..ha ha. Thanks for paving the way! You make me smile every day! Thanks for that!
AWWWWW.
She’s precious. You’re pretty damn cute, too.
You could pretty much kick anyone’s ass.
Happy Birthday, Presley!
I feel like before I know it my nine year old will be sixteen. That makes me sad.
You look awesome!
