[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 697318, member: 1233"] It is awesome to see you again! You were missed! I am sorry things have been so rough around your house. It sounds like having the kids get older has only magnified the problems, not helped to resolve them. I am glad you are doing better. I hope your medical issues will be at least figured out in the near future. You would be shocked at how well Wiz is doing! He is now in his very first apartment, working at building a career, and has become a wonderful older brother to both of his siblings! He and thank you play a role playing game every week, sometimes up to 3 nights a week and on one weekend day! He happily provides rides for thank you even on nights when thank you is playing and Wiz is not. Some nights husband goes and plays with them! husband has called the coolest dad ever by the kids they game with after Wiz told them about reading the Monster Manual to Wiz when he was a baby/toddler, which tickled husband quite a bit. Wiz even takes time to pick out incredibly thoughtful gifts for all of us now! That is a HUGE change in him, as is wanting to at least check in with us each week. He has come by so often on Wed evening that now our cat gets all sorts of irritated if Wiz doesn't come by on Wed. And Capn Morgan, our siamese, certainly knows which day is Wed, even during the summer when schedules are all wonky! thank you is about to start back to school for his junior year. He is a straight A student without much studying. As long as he gets all A's and does a reasonable job with his chores, I don't care if he games 3 days a week. he doesn't obsess, is easy to direct to chores when needed, is learning to drive without too much grumping or hesitation, and is a delightful kid. Goofy, but delightful. He even had to start shaving this summer when Wiz threatened to braid his beard - not that it was that long, but it was thicker than I had ever seen on a 16yo boy! Jess is having a lot of health problems and is not having much luck finding a doctor to help. So far the psychologists all say it is clearly medical and the medical docs all say it is psychological and the shrinks all say "hmmmm, I don't have a clue" and mostly she just hurts and her joints swell up hugely and she falls a lot. It is seriously impeding her life but she is doing her best and is a cheerful, delightful young lady. We are proud of them all, and figure they will all eventually figure out what to do with their lives. [/QUOTE]
