So proud of my son!

My 8 yr old has been BEGGING me to let him walk home from school.. It's about 2 blocks away and not on any main streets.. Well today I decided I would let him. I told him this morning that if he wanted to I would let him walk home by himself.. I sat here and literally bit all my nails off come 2:40. I know it takes about 10-15 mins (for a lil kid) to walk it. I decided if he wasn't home by 3:05 I would go looking for him.. Well, I peeked down the street and there he was!.. Im so proud of him. He ended up walking with a neighbor kid and his mom! Said he wasn't scared and he knew the way. He also told me that he wanted to walk with them or by himself from now on!... Wow.. .. My BABY is getting SO big!

Awwwwwww does he have a mobile just in case you need to ring him?!

I'll move this to the lounge because he's not hairy yet

Oh, it is so hard to let them grow up! And times have changed-we do need to be more careful. How smart of him to walk with a friend and his parent!

... ...thank you for share! ...

No he doesnt have a cell phone, but that's a good idea and I am on a family plan....hmmmmm? That's a good idea

I know...I`d be the same way. (Prob hide in the bushes and watch him wall down the sidewalk where he could`nt see me....but then of course you always run the risk of having someone else see you and think you are trying to nab a kid and call the cops on you)
