Eleven Years Old. I read somewhere this is the peaceful time of life when a child could operate under the radar and sort of flow along smoothly before they get slammed with hormones. Its tough, but I can totally see how easily that happens. Sam is doing great. Normal. Not getting into trouble (and believe me I have my ears perked) Playing computer, or WII, or reading, hanging with friends which entails playing WII or messing around outside if weather permits. He takes full responsibility for doing his homework. His teacher has not complaints other than trying to keep him challenged. He avoids conflict beautifully. Sam has met a couple new friends at the new school while retaining relationships with the boys in the hood. He has moved into Boy Scouts and heaven forbid- has a leader who isnt his parent. How long will that last? He is quite a comedian and enjoys trying out new material and working on deadpan.
