What does 17 mean for the mother/son relationship?

In my mind, you are still walking with me and Indiana squirrel down the childhood road to independence. Not so, mommy! You say that every day. I am a man. Not belligerent, but a man none the less, am I.

Seventeen means my suggestions must soften to another level. I am growing up as a mommy to learn this. I hope that you will be patient with me, while I oscillate between the infant mommy and the grown man mommy. I love you so much and love the man that you are becoming. I love the mommy that you are helping me to be. Happy Pre Birthday!
