Growing Up

I love this kid more than words can ever express and to get to 15 years, is a huge blessing! I've loved every second of being his mom! Yes, I'm "mom" now, not mommy, but mom!😢 Each season has brought something new, but I have to say this one, has been my favorite thus far! All the years of "the grind" has led to this where I get to be a friend, too! Still parent, first and foremost, but he knows I'm here for every conversation, every hurt, every struggle and that it goes no further! He trusts me!  He's my buddy and raising him the way we have, he respects us and that's huge! We had a fun weekend celebrating him, lots going on, but it all worked out! Ethan, you're the best and I'm proud to be your mom.....love you buddy! Happy Birthday!
