Yesterday, I had 2 (two) 15 year olds today, I have 2 (two) 16 year olds. They are a year apart, but one girls birthday is the 22, the other is the 27th and the third daughter – another year apart birthday is the end of next month. They have been cooking for years. Which is a great life long skill. So this part of her Sweet 16 Book is easy.
What is the “Sweet 16 Book?” It’s the mega life hack book for all teen girls. The purpose of this book is to ensure that I haven’t missed anything in my mission in preparing them for adulthood. I want their future husband, employees, and friends to view them as a blessing and not look at me crossed eyes for sending them out the house ignorant and useless.Also the goal is to answer the question what else is there to know beside your left and right turn signals from the drivers testing booklet.
