Couldn't be more Proud
Yes, that good looking young football player, yeah, the one on the left, yeah, that's my son. My baby is no longer a baby, no longer a child, he is knocking on the door of manhood. He looks so mature, so grown up, so big in those pads. And to see him play? This boy..er guy looks damn good on the field. He knows what he's doing and looks good doing it.
Football has helped his struggling self esteem, he's finding himself, finding his place in the world. Sometimes I wish his father would let go a little (OK a lot) and let him flouder and stumble along the way, for it's the only way Bo will grow and learn and stand alone. But that is another post entirely.
Last night, for a while, he was a BMOC (Big man on campus), he was A Football Player. And last night his father and I got a glimpse of things to come. Bo's going to be great.
