Ryan is getting ready to finish up his 7th grade year in middle school. Middle school is where the dances start. The elementary school where the kids went/go doesn't host dances. It is strange for me to send my son to dances. He went a few times during 6th grade, even met his girlfriend there. This year he has not been to any of them, but wanted to go to the last one. The last dance is the "formal" dance. I have such mixed feelings about it as for the 8th graders, it is much like prom. There are kids arriving in limos, paying LOTS of money for dresses and then there is an after party. It makes me sad to think that the kids won't want or need to go to prom in high school as they will have already experienced it. I hope not.
Ryan doesn't have a girlfriend right now so he went to the dance with two friends. They dressed up and had a good time. Growing up so fast!!
