He should be very proud of himself...and I know you are. I have one son who graduated from college and one son who didn't even go. And my daughter who is 32 and has just started nursing school. I am SO there for all of them. My daughter and I are best friends and talk several times a day. In fact she and her girls livied with us for the last 5 years. She just moved out with her boyfriend a couple of months ago but just told me today that she is moving back in....and you know what...I just said ok and I am NOT going to lecture her about it....and when or if she gains weight I WON'T point it out and tell all my friends how she used to be a size 6!!! My opinion is that people need to accept me for who I am and if I have to walk on eggshells around them they can just move on. Now with my mom since I am and only one around to take care of her, I guess I jusat have to live with it and keep my mouth shut. I've had years of practice. Sorry, I seem to be rambling. Patty |
