A few days ago I came home from work and was sorting through the mail. My son walked into the room and asked me “how do you like my new look?”
I looked up and was very surprised to see he had shaved his head!
I didn’t know what to say, so I asked him “what inspired you to shave your head?”
He said “I’m balding anyway, I just wanted to see how I will look when I’m completely bald!”
I hope he grows it back!
My son called me from college last night. He was sad because the girl he had been seeing has decided it would be wise to break off their romance. He had seen it coming, because they were going to different colleges with a large distance between them. When they first started dating they had talked about how this might happen, and they agreed that they would still be friends afterwards. But that is harder to actually DO than SAY!
So, we talked about some different strategies on surviving the break up. We talked about how he needed to take some time to heal emotionally, and avoid any kind of rebound romance.
Yesterday my sons approached me about making plans for the summer vacation. School will be letting out soon, and they want me to sign them up for one of the surfing summer camps that their friends have been telling them about, where the students are taught how to surf.
Surf Camp offers surfing programs for kids, teenagers, adults, and families. They offer day camps and overnight camps. My sons are too old for the teenager’s camps, so they want to sign up for the overnight adult camp. The overnight adult camp would be for one week, off the coast of North Carolina. The camp takes them to several different islands for them to learn how to surf, and includes side trips that includes a boat trip to an undeveloped barrier island and a trip to the new 84,000 square-foot Fort Fisher Aquarium.
