this summer, the boy turned 16. he lives with his dad now, and not with me, so i've missed a lot of the teen angst (except in phone calls) and he's changed so much from age 15 till now.
i've spent a lot of time telling him how proud i am of him, and listening to him tell me about the special people in his life...and hurt that i'm not a "direct" one any longer.
i loved this essay. it reminds me of the talks i've had with my son. :)
