I have been telling Michael for months not to skip school. Well, he was officially caught skipping one of his classes. He now has in-school-suspension for the next few days.

It is a video game weekend again. Game weekends are fun for the boys. They have a few friends come over. Well they move in for a few days. Most of them come of Friday and leave on Sunday. However, I guess it's date night on Friday, so everyone is coming on Saturday. 

Tomorrow however isn't just any old after school pizza night. It is a special night that I think I'm dreading. I get to meet Michael's first girlfriend. I think I am scared to meet her. Mike's friends know me, and know that I am a unique mom, however she doesn't know me. They have been friends for a while, however she has never been one of the girls that visits our home. Mike tells me to be myself only try to act a little normal. So I asked him if he wanted me to be a normal parent as he calls it and he tells me NO emphatically. Your a better mom when you are yourself he tells me. I love my kid sometimes. He can be a blundering bozo sometimes, but others he's a sweet and amazing boy.

I am scared to watch him grow into a man. I know I wanted the baby forever, and then he was turning into a little person. Getting friends made him more social and I was scared with that one. Seeing him eyeing a girl, and flirting made me see the child in front of me. He's has reached that point where he is a teenager and I'm beginning to see the man that is forming in front of me. I'm excited and scared. Wonder what he will do.
