My son.
That 13 year old of mine with twinkling eyes and a million dollar get out jail free smile. That one...I'm so protective over him. I'm definitely the mama bear when it comes to my children but Yah especially; he and I were alone for a long while before I got remarried. He has always been my buddy and has had my heart. So when he told me today that the girl he has a crush on "rejected him" I felt the lioness in me stand up. "Who is this little girl anyway and what makes her so special that she's going to reject "my son." Who does she think she is? Really...!"...Yea, I had that whole conversation....in my mind....But I said to my son...it's ok...she doesn't really know you and how great you are..because if she did she'd like you too. have (And you're only 13 so you'll experience plenty more crushes and rejections)...He seemed to take it well although I know his little feelings were hurt.
I have to remember that I can't protect him or any of my children from everything. I have to let them get hurt....but boy is it gonna be hard....
till the next time...
