An open letter to my almost Step-son

Well, I came home one day and he was just here.  Then I came home one day and he was just gone..WTH???!!! I don't know if I am sad or not.  I was just beginning to know the young man.  The person that he is.  Seemed like a nice young man.  Like his momma raised him right for the most part.  I mean he was a little lazy as most teens are.  He wasn't motivated for much except maybe altering his state of conscientiousness. But still I liked him a lot.  He was funny and very caring.  Just the opposite of his father.  I kinda felt a little sorry for him, because it seemed like he was searching for something.  I don't think he knew just what.  But it felt like that to me.  Like when I tried to get to know my dad.  It's a sad thing when a kid grows up only  knowing one parent.  Then they find out that the other parent isn't exactly what you expected them to be, or what EVERYBODY told you they where.  Maybe they disappoint on some level.

Well anyway, he was a great kid.  I called him "your tallness", cause he was really tall.  Told him tall was like royalty, cause most people are really short.  So that made him special already.  Yeah he was really tall, and he could dance.  The way he danced made me blush and I'm grown.  Geez, I think he was just really horny, being only 18 and all. 18 year old boys don't think about much at all other than sex and well sex.  I think that's about it.  Sex and food.  Yeah that's it.  I watched him literally inhale a pizza.  I just thought the boy didn't eat much.  No, he just didn't eat much home cooked food.  Pizza and Jack in the box were his staples.   And my youngest daughter's ice cream.  Yeah, we knew you ate it "B".  You wasn't fooling anyone.  Hahahha.

I just wanna apologize that your stay wasn't better.  I did the best I could for you.  But you weren't my responsibility.  I work everyday to take care of mines.  Mines are grown.  Perhaps if I had been given a choice and properly introduced I would have had a different outlook about the whole situation.  But some people refuse to grow up and do what is RIGHT in front of their face.  Spike Lee said it best.  "DO THE RIGHT THING"  That always works out best for everyone involved.  There are no illusions or deceptions.  Everyone knows the rules going in.  This gives everyone involved the opportunity to bring their best game if they want to.  But when you use deception, no one knows what the hell is going on and everybody involved is just trying to hang on to the program, but only the deceiver knows what the program really is.

So, again I apologize to you "your tallness".  I think you did the right thing going back.  I'm sure your mother missed you, no matter what you thought at the time.  We always miss our babies. I hope you learned SOMETHING  positive while you were here. I wish you great success in your life and I hope one day you and your dad will give it another try.  Maybe in the next life when you are both butterflies.  Keep that positive outlook and the ability to care about what others feel.  Don't let what happened here color your outlook about how REAL grown people handle business, cause real grown people never have to tell anyone they are grown.  You can watch how they handle they business and KNOW they are grown.
