Laurie didn't take long to leave for college. She never was one for patience, always in a hurry to grow up. Laurence reached his lifetime want and has been pretty satisfied with life. I think I'm going to enjoy us having the house to ourselves again.

I got old. How in the world did that happen? I know I should have seen it in coming. One child in college, the other a teen, I guess I deserve this grey hair. But I can't help but wish I still had my youth.
1697
Laurie has grown into a pretty teenage girl who devotes most of her time to planning her wedding and singing horribly off-key. Donnie has headed off to La Fiesta Tech to begin his life as a college student.
1692
Donnie has grown into a handsome teen, and the neighborhood girls sure do know it too. He's more than happy to go chasing anything in a skirt. I see a lot of me in that boy.
1689
Goodbye diapers and helloooo free time! Both the kids will be in school during the day now, thank goddess! Whatever will I do with my new found spare time? Hmmm ...
1685
The kids are getting big. Donnie is starting school this year. One less set of diapers to change thank goddess.
1682
Ugh, Idiot took the picture while my eyes were closed. I had a girl this time, that we named Laurie. I do make some cute kids if I do say so myself. One of each, I'm done now right?
1681
I gotta admit, he is a cute little guy, and not so annoying now that he does more than cry and poop.
1679
Good Lord, what does he want from me?? I gave him his son, and not 12 hours later, I'm pregnant again! Oh yeah, we named the kid Donnie, he had ten fingers and toes, yadda yadda yadda.
1677
I thought I was ready for marriage, I really did. I wanted us to get married before the baby was born. But when it came right down to it, that whole "til death do you part" thing just seems SO overwhelming. Thank goddess the sim shrink makes house calls, though I'm starting to hate the fact that I'm his best customer.
1676
Laurence presented me a decent sized rock, and we've been arguing ever since, about the stupid wedding of all things UGH! He wants a big wedding and I'd rather have a quiet ceremony since I'm already showing. Not to mention that I'd rather none of my boyfriends hear about the wedding hehe.
1675
Why is it that just when things are going great, life just has to knock me down?? The new house is kinda tiny, but it's all mine. I can run around naked if I want to, and I do! Often hehe. I was insatiable in my desire to prove that I could do whatever I wanted in MY house. Of course, woohoo is what I always desire. Poor Laurence was begging me to stop, and I was getting tired to so I pretended to give in to him. Maybe I should have quit sooner. I'm fairly sure that I'm pregnant. I won't have all the neighborhood gossips pointing at me like they do to Karen and Norma. Laurence and I will get married right away.
1674
Laurence and I eloped! Well, ok, eloped is a pretty strong word, we didn't actually get married, but we did get our own place.
1673
What a freak show! Ned has pointed ears! I thought they looked weird as a baby, but now I know I'm not nuts. On a more pleasant note ... Laurence and I have been spending quite some time together. I'm almost ready to step our relationship up to love and close the deal, if you know what I mean hehe.
1672
One less kid in diapers thank goddess. Karen invited an interesting person to Eleanor's party. Wonder where she'd met him? I could almost call him the love of my life. *giggle* No I'm not getting all goofy and believing in soul mates. Did I have you worried? I'm teasing because his name is Love, Laurence Love to be precise and he is dreamy. I cozied right up to him during the party, he sure didn't seem to mind.
1670
Oh sure. Karrie is off to a co-ed dorm, while I'm stuck here changing stinking diapers. I want to live my own life, not clean up after someone else's.
1669
As much as I've been looking forward to getting away from Karen, I really wasn't ready to grow up. She asked me to stay and help with the kids. Ugh, like I really want to deal with diapers and stuff. But atleast it will save me from having to deal with the responsibilities of paying my own bills, etc. Ok, this place IS a dump, but it's free to me.
1660
I swear I'm going to scream the next time that Karen utters that sacrifice is necessary to acheive a dream. UGH! I know that. But It is not MY dream that she wants me to sacrifice for. I'm also tired of her nagging me about my studies. I think maybe I will cut back on the boys so that I can get into college. That seems to be the easiest/quickest way to get away from Karen!
