Today is my son's 13th birthday

Some of you may remember when he was born. Well, as of today he is now old enough to post here. Not that he would, writing isn’t really his thing unless it’s about Pokemon or Minecraft (which he doesn’t get from me) or his recent interest in Nirvana and '90s alternative music (which he does get from me).

It kinda makes you feel old, doesn’t it? It seems like just yesterday I was holding him in the palm of my hand. Now he’s as tall as his mother, a reasonably intelligent kid, and worse, a teenager. Now the drama really begins.

Where did all the time go?

Wow, time flies. I remember. Happy Birthday ** Bombay Doors!**!

Happy birthday to the littlest Doper! I remember his birth well. :slight_smile:

ETA: Aww, I posted in that thread pretending to be my own baby! He’s 13 now too and an utter delight - excep that he’s way taller than me and never lets me forget it.

Very cool, Airman! And a happy birthday to your son!

13 has got to be tough, but you’ve done awesome so far, so why worry? :wink:

(One question: he a Steelers fan too?)

He doesn’t like football. Of all the ways we could be different, that just had to be one of them. I could probably change that by taking him to a game, but that’s an expensive way to find out.

As they say, be very nice to your kids. They choose your nursing homes.
Happy birthday to the new teenager.

Aww, I do remember that and it’s hard to believe it has been that long. Happy birthday to the boy!

Our youngest turned 15 this past Thursday. It happens fast; his brother will be going off to college in about a year.

Wow. Fantastic.

So this account remains unmanned?

Congratulations! Mine just turned one month old. I wish you all the best from one father to another.
