Shaving...

At dinner tonight we had a conversation about shaving with our oldest son. He is almost thirteen years old and it has become clear that he needs to learn to shave. It was interesting to see the look on his face when we mention that his father was going to show him how to shave in the very near future. It is as if he doesn't feel he is old enough to be bothered with this. To tell the truth I don't feel like I should have a child old enough to be shaving. It will always seem like just yesterday when he took his first steps. It is nice to see him maturing and growing into being his own person but I think we both feel a bit rushed by his growing up so fast....
