My baby is officially in junior high. Last year, he was in middle school, but in Colorado, I think he’s in junior high. We registered today at the school for an hour and forty-five minutes - with all four kids in tow! He’s such a good kid right now, and I just keep praying that God will protect him from all of the new evils that will be coming into his life over the next six years. I almost feel like the testing with fire is just beginning. We’ve tried to lay a good foundation for him, but as we gradually give him more responsibility and more freedoms, he gets to make decisions for himself as to which path he will choose. It’s a scary feeling because I love him more than life itself, but it’s just part of life, right? The good news is that at least we have six more years to offer sufficient consequences for the bad choices!!! So here I am - moving on up to a 7th grader’s mom. We’ll see how I pass the test!!
