Finally, Hunter is Home!!!!

I have missed him all summer and just couldn't wait to see my handsome boy last Sunday. Driving there, I was so excited that my tummy turned like it does just before you step on a roller coaster. I wondered how much he had changed in the 50 days he spent with his Father. Hunter has always been a little taller than most of his classmates so I expected that he had grown. I didn't expect him to be taller than both his Father and I! I was shocked to be looking up at my 12 year old while he looked down and grinned at me. Morgan was shy with him and you could tell he was hurt that she wouldn't go to him and buried her face against me so he couldn't see her. All summer she has been shy with all men except her Daddy. It didn't take her long to warm up to him and soon they were both giggling and laughing in a way that they only do with each other. It was heart warming.
Hunter came home standing about 5'9-5'10 and wearing a size 13 shoe! My little boy is now a very handsome young man. We had some issues to go over and new ground rules when he got home. He handled the change really well and we had a great first week just hanging out at home. We took his little girlfriend to the movies too. Hopefully this week we will get out and about and see more of his friends. Off we go....
