More photos






A very small and blurry picture of Josh in the upper left corner the only one I have of him in the last 4 yrs his step mom has some but hasnt sent them yet. The other three are of my middle son Kyle. He is 19 now and was my He double hockey stix child for a very long time but has totally turned around. He has a job, his own apartment, is taking in his younger brother to share the rent and bills. He now keeps his apartment immaculate to the point of OCD from what I am told and he stays out of trouble. A big change from the kid he was. He has the will of iron that would break a saint but a smile that would melt anyones heart to. I will post more photos as I can get them. I stole these from their myspaces and had to edit them to make them fit here and be able to use them since most had other people in them.. More to come later..

A New Day




Well today is definately a new day and I have decided to figure out this blog and use it more often. I dont know why I let it intimidate me. I think becuase it is so different than my xanga or yahoo blogs. Those are pretty intense posts so I dont always tell people where they are for fear of them worrying to death or worse yet scaring them away from wanting to keep in touch like just the mere mention of some of what is in them does to some family members. I cant help what happens with my kids, they do what they do but at least they have finally gotten theirselves on track and are doing better.




Josh is on the short term way out of prison he will be home on 9-19-07 and from what I have been told will never ever mess his life up again to the point of jail or prison. I pray that is true. Kyle the most stubborn and messy of them all is 19 now and the kid who would never clean his room is now totally OCD about how immaculately clean his apt. must stay! He has never had less than 1 job but usually has two so he can make sure all his bills are paid and is trying to keep his credit good.




Jordan turned 18 yesterday, hes still a little on the unsure side of what he wants to do he graduates in July after a rocky patch. He works full time and is moving in with Kyle. I never pictured all 3 boys being so close but they finally are true brothers and very close. I am very proud of how much they have grown and am glad they are finally growing up and getting over the past. It was not easy when things went bad with their dad.




Now to try and get a picture in..
