get ready for this year's homecoming.
like he is trying on what adulthood might look like.
in his own style.
you need no reason to love someone; should have no reasons why you would love someone. but, to like them? really honestly and truly, like them?
reason #243 why i like this boy; this young man--my son.
he is patient with my need to take his growing up....s l o w l y.
it's not that he isn't ready. it's that i'm not always ready--not prepared for the next step, quite yet.
i am thankful he gets that--that he is patient with his mom.
that he smiles and nods when i say for the hundredth time, "i'll get there....just give me a little more time. i'm doing my best."
still.
he needs guidance from his parents.
and a tie adjustment. and a ride.
best
deborah
