By the way I'll take those two teens, you can have my two. |
Oh no no no no swapping allowed lol..
I too fought with adam but I found myself sitting at the kitchen table (you know where all serious talks happen lol) anyway there we sat. I started crying and I told him..i'm not ready to give you up to the world yet but if it's what you really want you have my blessing..I just told him..i'm going to miss you and I love you and always know you can come back home without any i told you so's..i also told him..that I know life can get tough sometimes and don't think that if he had to come back home that it meant he failed. it just meant that he needed help and that at some time or another everyone needs help. I told him that I was proud of him and I knew that he could do anything he sat his mind to. I told him that i wish that he would wait til he was done with school but I understood why he wanted to.
But gosh darn this is the hardest part in a mothers life..letting your own child enter the world. All of a sudden I see him as that lil newborn..as a toddler taking his first steps..but even though I'm not ready my heart still swells with pride. I've raised my boy to be a fine man so I'm thankful for that. *sob* I don't want my baby to go
lol
