A few days ago, Tanner sat me down and said, "Mom I have some news for you." I held my breath, dreading to hear what his new adventure may be, or what trouble he is in. I kept telling myself to breath, just breath...it was difficult. I was feeling light headed and my palms were sweaty. I was trying to stay focused and prepare myself with his "news"...within seconds he said, "I have decided to play football my senior year of high school."
I couldn't scream for joy because my throat was so dry. I couldn't give him a huge, tight hug because he quivers whenever I try to show any affection towards him. Instead, I felt this huge lump in my throat, my eyes became teary and I said, "That's great news Tan Man." After he left and shut the door, I cried and then I did the boogie dance.
