Happy Brilliant Birthday to Hood #1…

A day or two ago I became the mother of a sixteen year old!!! The oldest member of the gang turned sixteen… which is really quite alarming since I still consider myself to be about nineteen… but sixteen he is and I feel the time flying past as he grows up in great leaps and bounds – never one to wait patiently for things to just happen!!!
