My 16 year old son just asked me if he could take a shower before he went to bed. I said he could wait until the morning.

“No Mom, I smell really bad!”  God, I love that child.

This is funny because we always have to remind him to take a shower.  I have caught him on numerous occasions taking fake showers.  You know, peering at himself in the mirror while the water is running for twenty minutes.  I think my baby boy is finally growing up.
