I'm glad he's happy with the buzz. It's shocking when done the first time. As far as donuts after, I would be hoping for sausage rolls. 😉

Mine is 19, and I was right where you are throughout the second half of his last year of HS. The missing his younger selves fades a bit.

I always let my kid do whatever he wanted to his hair. It was the one thing in life he had total control of. He got a faux hawk one year, then decided a mullet was a good plan. He looked good, AND it horrified people - twofer! He’s decided on a local college to save money both on tuition and rent. Then we’ll see. As much as I know I’ll miss him, I desperately want him to find his people, his next family, his wings. No one told me the hardest part of being a mom is always having a split heart.
