My oldest son got a job yesterday. LOL The inhells best friends for 35 years asked him to work for them M-W-F for $5 a hour 3 hours a morning! He is a ball boy. LOL They play tennis and have that machine that shoots the balls out, Tay is to pick up all the balls and load the machine. They go to a nice park too. Tay was so excited he set his alarm last night and was ready when they got here. My phone rings about a hour after he is gone and I see my cell number on the caller ID, YES he took my cell phone with him w/o me knowing! LOL I couldnt even be mad I was so proud of him. Tonight at his Lacrosse game I said I will have to write your new job in your baby book and he just grinned. LOL We told him to ask his boss for a 401k and health insurance! hahahahha I am very proud that he is being responsible.

That is great! Not many boys that age have that kind of responsibility! I probably would have been so proud that I would have cried a river. LOL.
