Some Quiet Finally!

Have you ever noticed that teenage girls just don't shut up?

My 13 year old daughter has been home from school for less than 2 hours and I have a big hole in my head. She's been singing and yapping at 90 miles an hour. She was showing no signs of stopping.

Normally that would be fine, but I have a headache and all I have been hearing is non stop yakkety yakkety yak yak.... (Felt like a pounding drill.)

Now, I finally have some quiet.
*Big deep breath and sigh of relief.*



*Don't worry, I am not that mean of a mother. I gave her 5 shekels for letting me take that picture.

    I used to think my teenage girl was the Talker, but my 7 year old son has everyone beat. He literally doesn't take a breath. My mother just landed with a few books for him - The Mister Men. He took one look at Mister Chatterbox and said, "Is that supposed to be me?"

    Nickie-it's either that or noise cancelling headphones. Duct tape is cheaper.

    Expat mum-at least he is aware bless him
