MY BABY GIRL...........

LAST NIGHT, SHE HAD FUN.........  FINALLY, AFTER EVERYTHING...... 
SHE HAD/HAS 2 OF HER FRIENDS OVER FOR A SLEEPOVER.  I FINALLY SAW A SMILE AND LAUGHTER ON HER FACE.........
IT MAKES ME SMILE........

NOW, MY HUSBAND CALLED ME BEFORE 5 PM. TO SEE IF HE COULD SEE HIS SON. HE WAS STILL CONCERN ABOUT THE SCATCH AND HE WANTED TO SEE HIM. HE ALSO ASKED IF I WAS STILL AT WORK/BUSY AT WORK. LIKE HE WAS CHECKING UP ON ME. I TELL YOU, HE IS SO SO, I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT. HE STILL WAS TO BE IN MY BUSINESS. HE FEEL LIKE, SINCE I WAS/IS HIS WIFE. HE SHOULD........ SO WE MADE OUR PLANS.
WELL, ABOUT 45 MINUTES WENT BY, WHEN MY DAUGHTER'S CELL PHONE RANG.  IT WAS MY HUSBAND CALLING, HE ASKED HER IF I TOLD HER THAT HE WAS GOING TO PICK UP OUR SON. I FELT AGAIN LIKE HE WAS CHECKING UP ON ME. WELL, HE INVITED HER TO GO WITH THEM.........
WHICH, SHE TOLD HIM SHE HAD PLANS.... THE SLEEPOVER.
I AM JUST SO HAPPY SHE FINALLY HAD SOME FUN TIME.........

OH, SPEAKING OF FUN TIME..........
SHE ALSO ASKED ME THIS......... AND REMEMBER SHE IS 14 1/2.

"MOM, WOULD YOU LET ME GO TO THE MOVIES WITH 2 GUY FRIENDS?"
OK........ I COULDN'T SPEAK..........

I KEPT THINKING AND SEEING HER........
PICTURING HER WITH PIGTALES AND HER PUPPY IN HER ARM. (THE PUPPY FROM THE PICTURE.)
HOW MY BABY GIRL HAS GROWN UP......  HOW TIME CAN BE SO CRUEL......
SO, I AM LOOKING AT HER WITH THAT SAD FACE.........
SHE IS SMILING AT ME........ AND SAYS.
"WHAT....."  "THEY ARE JUST FRIENDS, MOM."
SO, I TELL HER........  HOW ARE THEY GOING TO GET TO MOVIE? WHEN DO YOU PLAN ON GOING? WHAT MOVIE THEATER? AND SO FORTH, AND SO FORTH.......  THE HUNDREDTH QUESTIONS, LIKE MY GIRLS TELL ME............
OH, I DID ASK HER IF ANY OF HER GIRLFRIEND WOULD BE JOIN THEM.  NO......
I ASKED IF SHE COULD.........  SHE SAID THAT HER GUY FRIEND'S DIDN'T LIKE ANY OF HER GIRLFRIENDS.  THEY DON'T GET ALONG. OK........
SO I THINKING, MY BABY GIRL WITH 2 GUY FRIENDS...... HUH.........
I ASKED IF ONE OF HER GUY FRIENDS MOTHER WAS GOING TO TAKE THEM.  SHE WAS HOPING THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO. WELL, I COULDN'T......

OH THAT IS OTHER PROBLEM.......
I AM WORKING PART-TIMERIGHT NOW, CAUSE THEY ARE STILL DEALING WITH ISSUE, URRGGG...  THEY ASKED YESTERDAY IF I DIDN'T MIND LEAVING EARLY BECAUSE IT WAS SLOW.......  I NEED TO TALK TO SOMEONE... BUT THAT OTHER ISSUE I NEED TO DEAL WITH THIS COMING WEEK.....  WELL, SEE....
BUT BACK TO MY BABY GIRL.......
SO, SHE ASKED, "THE ONLY WAY I COULD GO IS IF I HAVE OTHER FRIEND TO GO WITH US, AND ONE OF MY FRIENDS MOTHER TAKE US?"
YES.......
SO OFF SHE WENT TO MAKE PLANS........
SHE RETURN LATER WITH........
"MOM, IF I COULD GET MY SISTER TO TAKE US, WOULD THAT BE OK?"
I SAID, "YES, BUT SHE HAS TO JOIN YOU."
"OH MOM........",  "SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO SEAT WITH YOU, SHE COULD BE BELOW OR ABOVE YOU.  BUT SHE HAS TO BE THERE."
WELL, OFF AGAIN SHE WENT TO MAKE PLANS. THEN RETURN WITH, "MOM, SHE WILL BE TAKING US ON MONDAY.  THAT IS WHEN SHE IS OFF FROM WORK............"
