So proud of my son!
My son Matt is 23 years old, a graduate of Emory U. in Atlanta, and a "big brother" to a ten year old boy there named Justavious. Every weekend he drives into a scary, violent part of Atlanta, and picks up his adoring and beautiful little brother, and then takes him to a variety of fun activities. They go to movies, sit by the pool in Matt's apartment complex, out to dine, etc. Often, on Sunday nights before he takes Justavious back home, they shop for and make a dinner together, which is then heartily consumed. My son is also giving his dad a very cool birthday gift this August. He is treating him to the last three games the Yankees will ever play in the current stadium, including two games against the Red Sox. Matt arranged for this and is paying for it--he is doing very well at his job as a sales executive at Navicure, the fastest growing company in the entire state of Georgia! I am sorry, very sorry, if this smacks of bragging, but I decided when we heard Matt was on the way to make parenting him the top priority of my life. And I am glad I did! Do you have a child of any age whom you are particularly proud of right now? Share the details with us here, please. Raising Matt gave me wrinkles on my face and gray in my hair, but it was all worth it, and will be for you too! :-)
