A Day I Have Dreaded

Well they day has finally came and gone a day that I have dreaded for 7 years the day

Ian goes

Hunting!!!

My dad has been looking forward to this day for 7 years. The day he would have a boy to take hunting. I have a brother but much to my dads dismay he doesn't like hunting. Ian has been looking forward to this day to and it made me very nervous. I don't like guns and I don't like the idea of my baby out in the woods with people with guns. So Sunday we got all his hunting stuff together and after we ate lunch at my parents house off him and my dad went into the woods. Me and my mom took him out to the truck and it was like we were sending him off to war. I went over the rules with him about never never ever touching the gun and other stuff I wanted and needed to say. My dad said they would be back before dark because he didn't want Ian to get bored. Well night fall came and they were not home and I was getting nervous so I called my mom and she told me they were pulling up in the drive way and they would bring him home. Ian had a good time and wants to go back. I was hoping that he would hate it but that doesn't look like it will be the case. I guess I have to let go and let my little man grow up and do these big boy things with his papaw. You should of seen him walking out to the truck to go hunting he acted so big like he was just a grown man. It was so cute and sad at the same time. I hate that my baby has to grow up. I have a funny story about his hunting trip but I will wait for

He is so cute in his huntin' gear. It is hard to let them grow up isn't it. And try to look at the hunting like this, he will be self-sufficient and have a healthy respect for guns and know they aren't toys.
