Morning!! HB, in a rather good mood this morning, eh?? Hmmm...what devious behavior lurks beneath?? HAAAA!

Bev, I am not certain that he CAN be converted but this show represents a sort of milestone for the two of us. When I first met the lad, he was quite young..all of five or six. He had suffered a very tumultuous life and I was a drinker. Needless to say, we did not "hit it off". His mother regained full custody of him only a couple years ago and so it has been an adjustment for me to learn to live with kids in the house again.

Anyway, we have formed a much better relationship in the last year or so and taking him to this show is a very big deal for the two of us. I feel a sort of bonding and the Princess has said that she is noticing it, too. His dad and he are not really close so this is a moment that may well define his future as a man. Not so much in the music but more in what I can show him as far as how a man should be. I am thankful I am not a drunk as I was before. Perhaps he will take from me the things that are most important.  Things like responsibility and manners and how to treat a woman..? We'll see.
