Ack--My Son is Turning 13!

I'm about to be a mother of a teenage boy.  In 4 days, my darling first born will cross the threshold into teendom.  Yikes!  So far, he has not exhibited any of that annoying teenager behavior aside from an occasional eye roll--but heck my 9 year olds do that.

I can't believe I'm going to be a mother of a teenager.  Boy, it makes me feel old.   Gray hairs, fine lines, occasional lower back pain are one thing but a TEENAGER, that really makes a gal feel long in the tooth!

Thankfully, my son is youthful in spirit (maybe he gets that from me--grin).  His big wish for his 13 b-day is a dwarf chameleon.  Yep, he still likes chasin' lizards.  Now I just need to find one by Friday.
