    Hi, everybody!
    This is a thread I'm starting here for you all to share your happy news! Things may not look great right now, but there is still good news in this world! So what's a good thing that's happening in your life right now?

    I'll start with this: I'm proud to announce I'm going to be an aunt for the second time in May of 2009! My brother and sister-in-law are expecting their second child!

    Now, what's your good news?

    Congratulations. I don't know if it's good news but it is news... My daughter is getting calls from boys.

    She's going to hurt herself running for the phone.

    My girl is 12. How old is yours?

    About to be 16. Actually she's now into spending time with boys too.
    I don't need that drama!

    Fortunately, at this age, the expectations for b/f, g/f seem to be limited to having lunch together and her taking his jacket when it's cold.

    The thought of a 16 y/o scares me.

    I managed to get up today and survive the day without killing somebody. That's good news in fall, I promise.

    Shit.

    You're screwed.

    Serious.

    This coming from someone who is going through the whole 'deal with her dad first' ordeal right now.
