We had a fun homecoming week. The kids loved dressing up each day. Casey's principal told him any man that can dress like that deserved a candy bar! He is the kid that doesn't care what anyone thinks. He loves marching to his own drum and being just who he wants to be. I love the confidence he has. I hope it keeps him marching in the right direction. I see glimpses of him maturing in ways that would make any mother proud. Throughout that maturing process I'm sure there will be phone calls and criticisms because he is a square peg and doesn't fit inside that all to accepted round peg hole. How I adore him in all his squareness. I love his smile and laugh. He loves to see just how far he can push me. I am learning, rather quickly now, to just let loose and have a good laugh with him. Sometimes he only needs a sincere apology to get him out of his miserable funks. This boy is so much fun to have around. What would I do without my crazy Casey...
