[QUOTE="PonyGirl, post: 171840, member: 187"] difficult child told me about a month ago, his girlfriend is pregnant. I tried hard to be supportive & excited during this phone conversation. I said congrats, and how do you feel about it? And he replied, "I am very proud of myself!" Which made me laugh. He has been living with girlfriend for six months. I didn't know her or spend more than 1/2 hour with her at the point when he told me a month ago. Since then, they've been to my house a few times for dinner & visit. The first time was a few weeks ago for PCs 17 b-day. girlfriend brought her 5 yr old daughter. I feel in love with her!! girlfriend, S, seemed to be very nice & friendly, is a cutie pie, very attentive mom. Her daughter, T, is cute as a bug in a rug! Sweet as can be, and gave me a hug when they were leaving. The 2nd time was yesterday, they came for our Annual July 4th gathering. We met uptown & watched the Parade together first, and S fits right in! After Parade, we do the walk up & down the street. I spotted a couple elderly biker chicks. They had to be mid-to-late 60's. Standing by their bikes, looking all revved up & bikered out. I said, "There, that'll be me in about 30 years....whaddya think?" S replies, "I'll buy you the shirt." And as she says that, I see one of the gals is wearing a t-top, black, with the word "Hottie" written in flames. I laughed!! Said to S, "You're on!" So, after the intial SHOCK and freaking out, I am feeling better about the whole thing. Perhaps this will bring on some further maturity for difficult child. Perhaps it will be a new beginning, a new phase of his life. He claims he is sober these days, and going to AA Meetings. He continues to work his full-time job, S also works full-time. Hopefully, they can make it together, and build a life and a home with each other. Peace [/QUOTE]
