I just finished reading your post and it is very touching. The process of letting go and letting those who will always be your babies making their own decisions can be painful. Good for him for knowing his own way; as much as anyone can know...I still don't know what I want to be when I'm grown up and I am well past grown up. I agree with a commenter who said more choices for kids besides a BA or BS would be nice. I think creativity is stifled pretty much once they start kindergarten. We need more arts and such in the schools! And I am totally getting off track here.
It was a beautifully written post and I am so happy for you and the peace you've found and the manner in which you fully support your son. Your relationship will be strong because of it.

that rocks for sure
and that you are not pushing for him to do anything other than follow his own beat
If that's where I gotta go to see what's going on. . . well then...
You know, I knew about this... I remember telling you about my old neighbor... but my dense brain forgot to ask something much more important...
Does your son know about this...?

Don't worry about posting too much - it keeps your brain from rusting. hahahaha
