What a lovely relationship you've nurtured there. 💗 (Big A is here until Monday--it's a goodly chunk of time.)<br />StephLove--Yes! And I definitely don't want to make things feel harder for them.<br />Thank you, Gillian. I'm very proud of them 🤗. <br />Sarah--OMG, thanks for the chuckle (and it also works as a mantra, doesn't it 😉?)<br /><br />maya https://www.blogger.com/profile/11164383180083433329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28402894.post-84704959374227520232023-02-01T14:39:05.619-04:002023-02-01T14:39:05.619-04:00Recently, I met a school mom in person whom I have...Recently, I met a school mom in person whom I have only ever texted about a carpool we have with our freshmen athletes. Harry drives my shift (SO GREAT), so I have been super hands-off. I got semi-involved via text) the other week because our boys had a weird and weirdly hostile conflict. Well, when I saw the mom at sportsball, she gave me a huge hug and said “I am so sorry. This is my second 15 year-old boy, and 15 is really the very worst.” It was, like, the best moment of commiseration I have experienced in a long time.
