Wonderful kids
My daughter and son have always had all the kids over to our house for everything. We have lots of room-fun place to be-no drugs or alcohol-the others parents were comfortable with them being here. 8 of the kids graduated last year and are going to UT-about 20 miles from here. They all showed up this evening and handed me $1000.00 to pay bills and rent. My eyes are red from crying-these kids are wonderful!

Oh my. Isn't that great??? A lot of my kids friends call me "mom". It sounds like you are a great mom. It's great that they did that for you. It is so cool when kids do the right thing. I am so proud for you and all those kids. You can be very proud.

taz, it brought tears to my eyes. That alone shows what kind of person you are. Keep your head up, things will get better.
Wash your hands and say your prayers
Because germs and Jesus are everywhere!
