I've noticed a change in my son K, who recently turned 15. All of a sudden, he's more of a young man than a just a kid. We talk and laugh about the day's events in a more adult manner. It's interesting. I'm enjoying him in a different way.
Sometimes I'd send him youtube videos or news clips that I think he'd find interesting. Lately, he's been sharing stuff he finds with me! Now I think I have to get ready for when the girlfriends start to come around.
What's funny is that he was studying for a health quiz last night and refused any help. Apparently there were a bunch of diagrams and definitions which I was not allowed to see!
I'm excited for L as she starts university in the fall. It's a new stage in her life (our lives), a new challenge to embrace. I think academically, she will be okay, the new part will be living in residence, getting along with roommates, adapting to university life as a young adult.

Kids really grows up fast, my son is already 13....how time flies!
It sounds like you have some great children there. Enjoy them because they will be gone before you know it. Thanks for stopping by my place. Hope you enjoyed the Beignets. That hula hoop baby was hilarious. Cracked me up!
I love the points when you begin to see not quite a boy, but not yet a man. A boy-man. :-)

Funny when you have that ahha moment and know your babies are growning up. Wait until you buy him his first drink at a pub. That was a big one for me with The boy.
Pete, you have a teenager!
Judy, I still have to try the beignets, but the can of biscuits is waiting there.
Pearl, thanks for stopping by, boy-man...I like that term
SoccerMom, I'll have to remember to buy him a drink when the time comes!
I enjoy reading about teenagers who aren't hormonal and sulking. This was refreshing!
I never thought I'd say this, but I am really enjoying our time with our teenager! She was a lovely child, but yes, it's a lot different when they're in the almost an adult stage. Different worries, different relationships, but still, lovely in another way.
Thanks PJ
Japra you know exactly what I mean!
