Summer with Teenagers has been good so far. Only six weeks until Katie and Tina go to SuperCamp, which is located at Stanford University. They will be there for ten days and that time is when I predict that they will enrich and blossom with peers and return to us as more like themselves.
God has blessed us in so many ways that are not even known. Each day we grow up a little more, and so do our teenagers. It's up to us to show them and act in ways that reflect our values to our children, no matter what age they are.
So in the next six weeks, we're planning to pray for our children, to spend time with them, and to love them. Then when they're away, we'll get a short break.
Teenagers are unique in that they so want to become independent, yet they want to be exactly like their peers. What a conflicting world to live in.
I wish all parents and grandparents a good summer and will be checking in with any comments or suggestions frequently.
