Motherhood is getting to know his friends and treating them like my own. Whenever Gabriel comes home with a bunch of his friends, I make sure I welcome them all like I welcome my son. I call it "open house" for them. They get play, eat, jump around, shout, laugh, get crazy, sweat it out. For me, that is the only way I can assure my son as he transitions in teenage phase, that I can be one of his buddies, too. I guess one of the saddest thing that can happen to a parent is when their children become stranger to them, or them to their children. I do not want that to happen ever.
