My first born, Nathan, is such a wonderful young man. He calls me regularly to check in and let me know how he is doing...and to say he loves me. This week he told me about his concern for a young woman from his apartment complex. She was jogging on a trail behind the complex at around 4:30 in the afternoon when she was grabbed by a stranger, severely beaten, raped and then hung and left for dead. She was found while she was still alive and is now in the hospital. I hate knowing that dangerous people do walk among us. Nathan and his roommates are now regularly escorting other girls to and from their cars and to the laundry room. He is a gentleman.
I stopped blogging for about 6 months because I struggled with depression and some of my old posts seemed too emotional for my comfort....but, I'm back to writing!
Great news, my husband and I are going to meet a young man (30 yrs old) on Friday. What makes this interesting is this young man grew up without knowing his father and after sufficient inquiry, it turns out that my husband is his father. This makes us instant grandparents since Brandon (that's his name) has a 7 yr old son and a baby daughter due in November. We have embraced this news and can't wait to see him.
Hopefully I will have some pictures of us all enjoying each other on a great holiday weekend. I am looking forward to writing about how it all goes.
