Feeling Silly
my father sent this to me , he is hinting one of two things....My daughter is wanting to move out on her own and he is wanting me to trust in the lord and let her go..... or He wants my son who is turning the age in june that young boys take this journey... to go on his journey with no interference from me .... either way I think he is so funny because if he thinks my daughter can live on her own he is mistaken ... and my son would stay all night on a stump to save his life let alone become a man .... or is it me over reacting being a mom lol .. read the email and leave a comment I am curious to what you think
