he's such a cutie. he's been so vulnerable with me lately, it's cute but nerve racking too. wants less to do with dad and more to do with me...is watching me constantly, when i'm working, asking about this that and the other thing. i love the little booger so very much, he's got my determination and such yet he's this unique soul at the same time. i remember being insecure as a teen, and when he is it just makes me feel like "aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrgh." i try to hug him and tell him in direct & indirect ways that he's cool, and the sh!tz you know? he just has to scrub up on doing his homework so his grades will match his test scores. they nail him for not doing it and it's killing him.
