I'm only 26, really!

What age do you act? Me, I'm only 26. That felt good!

You Are 26 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

Expected, But Still Shocking Mail

A week ago today I opened up our mailbox and pulled out the lone piece of mail: A selective service registration card for my son.

My first reaction was a casual, "oh, I've been expecting this." Then reality set in. My son is turning 18. He will be able to vote (please do!) and get a tatoo without his mother's permission. (Please don't.)

He can sign his own release forms if he does anything like horseback riding, (okay) or skydiving (umm, maybe not.)

He is ready to fly the coop and live a life of his own.

But as his mommmy, I will always worry about him.

And I'm not even going to go into the feelings of the potential of having a son on the battlefield. (No matter how good he is at Battlefield 2!)
