Nicholas attended his first high school dance last night. Actually, it was his first school dance since the Mother-Son dances in elementary school--he never had any interest in the junior high dances. I was really excited that he wanted to go; he's told me that he's 'trying to be more social'. He didn't go with anyone in particular--he just knew of some of his friends who were going, so he wanted to go hang out. I told him I'd be happy to buy his ticket, as long as he made two concessions--he had to let me take a picture of him, and he had to wear a shirt with a collar. (He grumbled a little at both, but conceded.)
I think it was a success. He said he didn't really dance, but he got to hang out with some of his friends. I almost expected him to call and ask to be picked early, but he stayed until the end and said he had a good time. I think my little boy is growing up (and becoming more social, to boot!)
