he grows

I shared a glass of wine with a new single momma friend last night and she lamented at my son being amazingly well behaved, attentive and polite. 


I agreed and told her I felt it was mainly a product of him being constantly surrounded by a gaggle of strong, amazing women.  


She responded that he appears better trained than 99% of of the men out there, and at age 11?!?  


Then, after a few seconds of silence I replied: if he ever gets a controlling, shitty girlfriend, I swear to God I will rip her head off.  


And I took another gulp of my wine.
