Prom King!

I had so much with the kids yesterday before prom. They all looked so good! I enjoyed the parents company too. We had a photo session that lasted about an hour and a half. The kids were getting really tired of it. I went in after to download my pictures but totally forgot that Nick took our laptop to work so his friend could work on it. I couldn't download them :( I have no pictures to share today but you can be sure they are coming and alot of them LOL. After everyone left Colleen and I had a few drinks and both decided we were not going to the prom. Dom's friend promised she would video it with her camera. I sat and waited patienly for Dom to text me to let me know. At 9:45 he told me he won. I was so excited for him. Remember I told you he was not that excited about it. Well, when he came home he had on the little sashy thing and his prom king crown/hat. I took pictures and he just sat there and said "mom I have had a great senior year". I said yes you have! I am so proud of the man he has become. I get teary eyed just typing that. I have to let go of him more and more each day. After he came home and changed he was going to a party and asked me what time he had to be home. I said Dom you use your discretion and had the big talk with him about drinking and driving. His friend Danny was spending the night too so I kinda lectured both of them. I said if you need a ride call me. I also told them that didn't mean that I was telling them they could drink. I was just telling them that I know things happen. They left at about 11:30. I.did.not.sleep! I was up and down all night. Finally when I got up at 3:30 they were still not home. I fell asleep after that tho. I got up this morning and they were out in the living one on each couch LOL. I was so happy! It is so hard to let go of them but you have to. He is 18 1/2. He didn't go to Kindergarten until he was almost 6. So it is time I just have a hard time with it. Nick had a talk with him about you know condoms to make sure he had some. I was like WTH???? Seriously, tho I know that he probably already has done the act it is just hard as a mom to even talk about it. Even tho I have talked surfacely to him about condoms it has never been like too specific! When they left to go to the party he put his crown/hat back on and the sashy thing LOL. I know he was proud!!!! I guess it wasn't that stupid after all LOL. He is graduating June 7th I am just in shock and emotional about the whole thing. He keeps asking me if I am gonna cry and I keep telling him yes. I called my mom last night to let her know he won and she was so excited she cried! Like I said, I know she misses these things with the kids.

Enough with the emotional stuff. Tomorrow is Mother's Day. I am excited to spend the day with my mom, Nick and the kids. We aren't going to my MIL'S because she has a baptism to go to. Isn't that stupid on Mother's Day. I sure hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day!
