I'm posting this again: my son in the Veteran's Day Parade

6. Thank you, SG
He had some touch-and-go years and then one day woke up and was this cool dude. :D I like being a mom of a teen. Everyone told me these would be the worst years. Guess I got those out of the way early. :)

4. My dear Der Blaue Engel!
Well, let's see if we can keep it from that awful state this time!

Your son is a handsome young man, and I'm sure you're proud of him!

Is that San Francisco?

Great pics!

10. This is my favorite of him
from our summer trip through the Cascades. (This is Mt. St. Helens.)



That's me, next to him. Yeah, the one that looks like the kid next to the big dude! :o

I grew up in Tucson, and even that far away, SF was THE place to go. :D
