Another Post, Another Birthday

Oh how proud we are of our boy, JB! Can you tell by this picture that he is indeed my son? Dorks of the world UNITE!

I don't have too much funny to say about his birthday. We had a very low key celebration. No "super sweet 16" blowout here. He only wanted family and "the girlfriend" invited.

Turning 16 is bringing out the teenager in him, that's for sure. He is caring more about what he wears outside the house and has the girlfriend to prove it. We are gearing up now for the BIG Winter Formal dance this weekend. He's gone before to three dances but never "with a date." This will be a new era for us. Flowers bought. Check. Vest & bow tie rented. Check. Pants & shirt from last year still fit. Whew! Flowers ordered. Dance tickets...not yet!

And goodie for me! I still get to drive the taxi van to and from dinner with six teenagers as JB still doesn't have his driver's license and even if he did, could only drive ONE passenger in his car. Seriously, which is better: one car full of teenagers or carsssss of one teenager? I really don't know!

All of this the month before I turn 40. It really makes one SERIOUSLY DEPRESSED!
