ELIJAH'S PROM

What a handsome young man. They took pictures at Anna's house so I will post them when and if I get them.
Isn't he beautiful!
I am either the coolest mom or the dumbest mom ever because I let him take my Mustang to dinner, prom and an over night after party.
Jim was certain that I had lost my mind!
He was so excited about driving it so his joy out weighed my reservations. I know it is just a car but it is the only car I have ever wanted from the time I was young so to hand it over to an 18 year old was a big deal.

Well, he was attending an "adult supervised" party meant for just a small number of kids and large numbers of kids started showing up with alcohol and started getting out of hand. Needless to say the police were called. Elijah had decided to leave shortly after the alcohol showed up but was stopped by the inbound officer. He immediately called me so Jim and I headed out to get him. After taking a breathilizer test he was allowed to leave so we met him at the school and brought him and the car home. You always worry about them making good decisions when you are not with them so I am very proud of him. There were only about ten out of more than 70 kids that chose to not drink! I am so glad that my baby was one of the 10!
WAY TO GO ELIJAH!
