I too, will be parenting teenagers in the new decade; our oldest will also become an adult. Yikes! And I thought the Terrible Two's (and three's) were bad! Just so you know, though, turning 40 is bad - I did that this year . . . however, in the coming decade, I'll officially go from being a suburban wife & mother to being a farm wife!

Happy New Year - I really enjoy

All of the above is also true for me (well, I only had two born in the last decade. My second born was in 1999).

I wish I could be as optimistic as you on the ag front. We are trying to sell out. Sell the farm, sell the machinery, sell the ranch. but no one is buying. No one is buying this year's hay crop either. So it's a bleak turn of the decade for us in agriculture.

I hadn't really stopped to look back at the last decade until reading your post. I, too welcomed 3 new additions and watched all four stumble through baby, toddler and little kid stages with such delight. What a remarkable decade. With the wonderful foundation you're giving your babies, they won't ever turn far from you as teenagers and young adults. I share your concern for the

I just lived your next decade in this decade. I survived the first teenager, the first driver's license, the first boyfriend, the first college student, the big 4-0 birthday, the first 20 years of marriage and 10 more years of cotton farming. You will survive it too and what a ride it will be!

My oldest just turned 10 last week - I don't want to think of what will happen in 3 short years........ugh.
