My son Eli turned 17 this last Friday. He has two more years of high school left (had a redux of kindergarten). He’s thinking about going into the military after graduation. I told him he’ll have to get a haircut.
It seems like only yesterday when he was 4 year-old when I and his mother split up. He’s had ups and downs like many of us, but he’s turning out pretty good. I wish his grades were better, but he’s very intelligent. I wish he had a job, but he’s thrifty with the money he has (if your goal is buying a lot of cheetos, which it is). I wish he’d even get a hair cut, but not really.
Soon he’ll be on his way with his life. I’ll miss him. He’s grown too fast.
