too many teen boys

My son had several friends over the other night to celebrate his birthday. I was really dreading it. Usually, that many teenaged boys in a confined area drive me crazy. But they did really well. Here are a few of my favorite things:

1. they were not overly loud

2. they were not obnoxious

3. they did not make too much of a mess

4. they did not eat all of the food

5. they even left some of the soda

6. they did not bother me

7. I got to watch a movie all by myself

8. they left fairly early

9. they surprised me

10. they really made me appreciative
