A Young Man


Last Thursday, JT had a youth group function. I took him to the church buidling, dropped him off, and told him to text his mother and me when he was ready for us to come get him. He agreed. This is a usual arrangment these days. So time passed and Shawna and I were starting to get somewhat concerned we had not yet received a text. Shawna called JT and this is how it went:

Shawna: Hey Son, are you ready for some to come get you?

JT: Oh, don't worry about it. Alex said he would give me a ride home and we are at the gas station getting gas. Alex will bring me home as soon as we are done here.

Shawna: Okay. See you in a little bit...

And then Shawna relayed the conversation to me and we sat in silence. DEAD. SILENCE.

When did our son get old enough to have friends who drive?...?

Time marches on...

So, I'm liking all the updates. Before we know it, he'll be the one driving! Let's hope he's better at it than his dad was at first :-).
