Well, where do I start?
I can't believe that Colton is 18 for one thing.
That the world considers him to be an adult. That he can now make his own decisions and be held completely responsible for them
.
Wow!
Well, he celebrated just how he wanted. Josh made some of his boneless buffalo wings and I made a Caesar salad and we also had corn on the cob. Coltons favorite food. He had a few good friends over and after dinner we had the family over for cake and ice cream. It was a fun evening.
Getting ready to cook the chicken!
Colton and friends!
Getting ready for cake and ice cream and presents.
Look at all of those candles!
He made his wish!
Opening his gifts!
Well, I don't know that after a month or so of Colton being 18 anything has changed much. He still comes and goes as he pleases, doesn't do any chores, occasionally is home for dinner, hangs out with friends more than his family (I know, that's what teenagers do), he is old enough to vote, become a cashier at Smith's Marketplace, and be accepted to college (that's another post!).
One thing is for sure tho, I sure do love this boy!
(I know that he's not really a boy, but to his mom, he always will be!)
I am so proud of the young man that he is becoming and of what he is accomplishing!
Stay strong son, and remember that your family loves you, no matter what!
