I handled it okay when my oldest turned 13, he's almost 16 now! But now that my youngest is 13!!!! Wow!! I'm now the mother of 2 teeanagers!! Better invest in Hair coloring!! :crazy:
 
Okay, I have only one baby, but he turned 13 last year and I turned 39...it's been a hard year and I understand where you're coming from...just had a hair appointment today...no color though. I told my hairdresser that I was feeling old...not that I am...but my hair style was looking more like that of my older sisters and well, they're grandmas...I want something sassy, spunky and funky! God, love that woman, she came through for me...nice short do with some spiky ends, but still appropriate for my age and profession.

I think the last couple months have hit me the most...we had high school orientation for DS, he actually started talking about girls that he liked (mouth drop) and then we just got back his spring school photos...WOW! The fall ones were taken in mid-November and such a difference....all the little boy, chubby face is gone...waaaaa! I've gotta go read the book "Love You Forever"...it's a children's book about a mother's love for her son....it makes me bawl everytime, but when I feel like this it's a nice read.

Best wishes to you on mothering TWO teenagers!
 
Our youngest just moved out last week, living on her own, about 10 minutes away. It's nice to have an empty nest, but you worry about your kids even though they're adults.
 
My "baby" turned 13 last week. Of course, I'm 55 so it wasn't so bad. :rotfl:
 

My baby is 11, oldest just turned 21, and DH just turned 50. Big year here. :sunny:
 
I have 3 teenagers. I can't believe it. How did this happen? When your baby starts hitting those milestones it really hits you hard. I realize that I don't have any little kids anymore. Things are changing so fast and there is a part of me that wants to go back to when they were little.
 
I have two sons. My oldest is 19 and I can't tell you how I cried when he turned 16. Never mind senior prom and high school graduation. Now my "baby" is turning 13 in May. Suddenly, over the last 3-4 months, he is looking and especially SOUNDING like a man! Puberty hit him hard and fast, but it hit me even harder. I am so not ready for this!! :sad:
 
My oldest turns 13 monday. I am feeling aged and like I am in some kind of time warp.
 
Ya know...a couple of these posts made me think...I guess I don't have it as bad as I thought. My almost 14 year old baby has an uncle who is going to be a first time dad anyday...and he just turned 50 in October and his wife will turn 37 in June. Wow! Daddy-to-be already has a head full of white hair...very few of his natural color left, so I'm in pretty good shape...he'll be 63 when their child becomes a teenager.
