Middle Boy had a request for me when he called tonight.  He said he has been thinking about something and wanted to ask me about it.

Middle Boy wants to spend two hours a week together...just me and him...like we are now when he comes home.  Of course I do.  It makes me smile that he is a teenage boy and he wants to spend time with his mom. 

I told him we would figure it out, because I would really like that, too.  We just have to get him home.

Praises for a sweet relationship with Middle Boy.
