Everyone has gone to bed here. A tough day to be sure. D12 is exhausted. D17 is trying to be the 'surrogate mom' , telling me to make sure that since 'mom isn't around any more' I need to plan balanced meals with veggies and stuff.
I told her I'd do all the grocery shopping and she doesn't need to,.The past month her mom tried to make her into the grocery shopping person. I mean, she's 17 and should not be burdened with being 'mom #2'.
I did thank her for the suggestions, and that I WILL do a better job at shopping and cooking.
I'm going to do the best I can to keep her from having to be 'mom'.
