Out on the town with a teenager

Yesterday I took my son out for a beer in Stockholm. He is 18 plus. He'd never ordered a beer before since back home you have to be 21 to drink alcohol. We had a good time. We just had one beer at a bar with outside tables. It was a beautiful summer evening and there were a lot of people out and about. So, we're just sitting there talking and people watching. We had a really good conversation. It dawned on me that my son is really growing up....today he is out all day with friends. He gets around like a native here. Mom is feeling a little old....
