My Little boy


My son just turned 13 a few days ago and that sucks. He is at an age when he wants to be with his friends more and me less. I know I sound like a girl (mom) but it sucks that my boy is getting old.

For years Christmas was boring until we had Sammy and I got to live the excitement of Christmas through his eyes. I was a kid again, playing with cars, games and toys. It was fun again to talk about Santa and see his eyes light up on Christmas morning. Now that he is older it is turning boring again. I think it becomes boring when kids get to the age when they ask for video games and electronic stuff. Opening a video game is not like opening a bike or a big wheel. I do have a good surprise for him this year so I'm looking forward to making him (me) happy.

If you have small kids enjoy it now!

The teenage years suck, don't they? If there is one thing I could wish for kids of that age is for them to want to still be kids and not want to grow up so fast. Sadly, they don't learn this lesson until they're actually adults.

Happy holidays.

I was such a brat as a teenager, that I am sure I will be repaid ten fold by my children....
