Oh boy do I remember my
first school dance. Actually, that makes it seem like I remember a lot
about it. All I remember is that I wore this one dress that I had to have
because my best friend Adriane had it (sorry about that!) and it was pretty
dang tight. I don’t know that we actually even danced so much as hung out
in a darkened gym and talked to our friends and gossiped about boys.
Sound familiar? Oh how things have changed…. And not.
My son
went to his first dance the other day and while I was excited for him to be
having these experiences I’m also saddened at how quickly they’ve come upon
us. He was adorable {he was told more than once he looked like Justin
Bieber much to his chagrin!}. From the scoop I got it seems that the
junior high kids of today do much of the same milling around talking to
friends, except this dance had the added element of fun of being able to
purchased water balloons and having a water balloon fight {outside of course)}
Hey, anything to raise money right? Anyway, here’s a picture of us before
he left. And yes, he’s officially at least an inch- or two- taller than
me.
Did I mention he'll be a teenager next month? *sigh*
So tell me, what do you remember about your first dance?

Oh, you almost have a teenager! What a fun time for him. That water balloon fight sounds much more fun that the typical dance. I honestly can't remember my first dance right now--that's probably not a good sign.
