He's Growing Up

He'll go on his first BIG away trip this weekend without me. I have always gone, baseball tournaments, State championships, District finals.

This isn't one of those though. There is a skate competition in Little Rock this weekend. The store that is sponsoring him have let him work for them a few nights to allow him to earn extra money for food and such while away.

I am ok with him going, I know he's good, and should his Demo get used in commercials and so forth, then his equipment will also be provided, which is always good for the pocket book. I just hate that he will be riding that distance with young drivers. And Little Rock is no picnic either.

I am a little sad that he chose this over the college baseball team this summer, but there again, it is his choice, and as long as they are behaving, and there are plenty of adults with them, I'll untie the apron string for two days. But no promises after that. Not for a little while.
