What Am I Doing?

I have five daughters.  All of them are beautiful.  I know... I'm their Mom... but truly they are gorgeous.  I am the first to say that they don't get it from me.  I'm average.  Not gorgeous, but not hideous either.  When the oldest four were all teenagers I thought we would have to move to the mountains.  Many parents joke about locking up their daughters, but I seriously considered it.  Oh I trust them... it is the men.  Happily, the oldest four are married and I couldn't be happier with my son in laws.  And it does my worry good to know they are "taken" by wonderful men.  But there is one daughter left and she is not making life easier.

She has many qualities I love about her... but it is the ones I wish she didn't have that give me gray hair.  She is tall... with great legs... curvy... beautiful face.  You see my dilemma?  She'll be eighteen this year and off to college.  She has two big brothers who definitely look out for her but where will they be?

She's oblivious and I must admit I am sometimes.  She's my little girl.  I stupidly got her braces so she has a great smile.  And I am so dumb that I recently got her teeth whitened at Genesis Dental of Salt Lake.  I'm crazy!  What am I doing?

I should have left her teeth all crooked and scraggly.  I should give her a bar of soap to wash her hair!  I should dress her in overalls!  I'm glad I have a plan for when she leaves for college.
