Turning 13! It's not possible.

Last night, Xander and I had the evening alone together because Marquella is at her dad's this week.  Xander wanted to just hang out with me (he's not yet embarrassed to be seen with me, which is something I really need to cherish), so we stopped at the game store that is by our house and spent some time wandering around together.  Eventually the sales guy came over and we started talking D & D (Dungeons and Dragons for the uninitiated).  I just have to say that my son is really pretty darn funny.  He was telling the stories of his "adventures" and completely acting them out.  

As much as I wish that Xander would stay young forever, I'm also glad that he's growing up.  He turns 13 next week, which is something I still can't believe, but last night he made me realize what a good kid he's turning into and starting to become the man that I want him to be.  I'm glad that I get to be his mom in this crazy adventure called life.  I've only got a few more years to hang out with him, but it should be a blast.
