Oh the trials of a 16 yr old

Courtney went to dinner, a street dance, and to a friends house to stay over last night. All was well as she completed her first shift at Chicken Express. She was showing me her tip money when her face suddenly sunk. In fact, we had to pick her chin off the floor. She realized she had lost/misplaced/had stolen the $50 her dad had sent her for gas. Oh My!!! She called her buddies, looked in her car frantically. All for null. Gas money is gone, yet again for dear ole mom to pick up the tab. I keep hoping and praying for miracles to occur in my ever so immature 16 yr old....

Next time I know she will remember not to take that much cash along...
