		<description>Hi Frank!!

I love your blog and read it through every time...  This one really hits home for me.  Having a 17 1/2 year old son (our only child) who is a few weeks away from ending his junior year in high school, the part about  "All the business of parenting makes the years go by fast and pretty soon you look in the mirror and say what the hell happened to me? " really resonates.  My husband and I are tactfully avoiding the subject of 'who and what are WE going to be when Ozzie leaves?'  John won't even broach the subject (I keep bringing it up!!).  Instead he says, "we'll deal with it as it comes..."  

When you came home from your swim on Sunday, I am sure you both looked each other in the eyes and had one of those 'I think we did a good job with these guys' looks....  For my husband and I there are few nicer feelings than giving each other that look :)....  It sure comes in handy to remember times like that, especially when our offspring are making us doubt our parenting!!  (I don't know if you have kids old enough to drive yet; my favorite is getting into my car - when I am in a hurry of course - and there is absolutely NO gas....!!! (said offspring gets an ample gas allowance.....but that would mean putting gas in MY car ha ha)....

Thanks again for taking the time to write your blog, I'll look forward to the next one!!

Take Care,
Alison :)</description>

		<description>Thank you for writing this Frank.  Like you, I will have this conversation again with my seventeen year old daughter who at times thinks she knows it all.  I believe she has developed a false sense of security living in our relatively small town here in Oregon.  Because she was born in San Diego and lived in Los Angeles for five years she thinks she is more street wise than her peers here.  I am sure we have our fair share of predators here!  I hope she really hears me this time and takes the tragic death of Chelsea King to heart.</description>
