So maybe my mom never actually said to me "I hope you have a kid just like you someday" but I wish she would have because in my memory I was almost the easiest kid and teenager ever! I never went against what my parents said (honestly) and I only remember one teenage moment which involved a lot of tears and a cup of water dumped on my head by a normally level-headed matriarch. I am sure there might have been a few more but not that I can remember.
I know I didn't like doing the dishes because I made up a song entitled "I Hate to do the Dishes" to the tune of "I Love to See the Temple". Sometimes I still find myself humming it as I do the dishes. Here are the words. Feel free to sing along.
I hate to do the dishes; I'll finish them someday.
And then maybe my mom; will let me go and play.
For the dishes aren't my favorite things; Not things of joy or beauty.
As a child of Mom I've learned one thing; The dishes are my duty.
Of course with these hams for examples what do I expect!
or.
Take your pick. I concede to them all! Don't worry though folks. I will be back in 4 years!
