Self-reliant, resourceful, funny and smart? Congrats! What more could a proud Mom want, or a proud Dad, for that matter? And I'm happy to be able to say that my kids, though a wee bit older, fall into the same category...And the best of luck to them both, of course...

so refreshing to hear about kids who are doing well, who are happy,
and whose parents are happy with them!

Hey mal......I thought this was a pic of you and your son when you first posted it. I'm the same kind of Mom. I just tried to "read" each child (as the were growing up) and guide them accordingly. I looked at all three of them the night of my party....and I was very proud.
