Boy turns 16

How is it that my youngest is now 16 years old? How is that possible? Although baby days seem a long time ago, I can’t fathom 16 years passing. Ah well. He has had a good day.

Presents with family. A Barnet football game with some hospitality thrown in and with 3 of his local besties. Then a Five Guys meal, which is his favourite and with a great number of his brothers and sisters and then the cinema, to watch Creed 3. I can watch boxing and the film was excellent but what the body takes and recovers from when you’re a boxer, is extraordinary.

MightyMouse is an amusing, quick thinking, often mumbling incoherently, loyal, friendly, fitness fanatic and gym boff, who is often a delight and sometimes a puzzle. His GCSEs are looming and he’s currently thinking of maths, physics and economics for his A level choices. Interesting.

So we are, I am, very grateful for 16 years of this young man. Most of his brothers and sisters find him funny so he must be.

Oh - and that orange bug car passed me by - funny little car.
