It is officially the last moments of Nathaniel being a minor (per the state of Texas). My baby is no longer a baby. Tomorrow he turns 17. How time flies! Nate (as he likes to be called), has been a joy, a trial, an ongoing lesson, a miracle, the adjectives can go on. Man...how I love my son.
There are many things about Nathan that contribute to who he is. Some of these traits drive me absolutely batty. Others I just completely relish. Either way...they make up who he is...and for this moment I want to share just a little.
- the music he listens to is great most of the time
- he has always been smart and inquisitive
- a gaming geek
- he is a natural leader
- completely loves his doggy
- eats up historical facts like its nothing
- adventure is in his blood and sometimes he actually knows it
- he is a carnivore (hopefully one day he will try a fruit or veggie)
- drives a way cool car
- is a swimmer
- loyal to his buddies
- likes to have mom and son lunches
- almost an Eagle Scout (even if his mom did have to push it)
- pretty laid back
- sometimes a loner
- learned to bake a chocolate cake from scratch when he was around nine
- hates trees and not a fan of the green movement
- he will always have a soft spot for Pokemon and Mario Brothers
Oh I remember when you told me we were not to call him Nate-it was Nathaniel-hahaha I won in the end!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of your post-listing the things about him.
