Boys Become Men
On the way home from the local high school football game tonight, we had some interesting conversation. First, Walker informed me that the worst day of a mother's life is the day her little boys become men and move away. (I'm sure he's right! How does he know this? I can't even THINK about that day!!). Then he tells me he will probably move out when he's 33 and won't move too far. Will adds in that he will probably just move next door. He will work at the aquarium and be the guy who feeds the sharks. Then he decides, actually, he will move to Mansfield near Poppy & Grammie and when I have family dinner, he will be close enough to still come to it sometimes. I reminded him he WAS family dinner, and he HAD to be there. Always. Next Walker decides maybe he will move to Las Vegas and work in a bank, but wants to know if a bank job gives him a lot of time with his family, like Daddy's teaching job does. Alas, he decides he's moving into the neighborhood
