[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 620598, member: 1514"] I realize that I am more involved with my grown kids than many people are. One of the reasons for that is the grandchildren. The only reason Cory returned to my house at the beginning of January was that the place he was renting was a victim of a home invasion. Thank heavens he had come to my house during the day that day and I was too tired to take them home or they would have been there and who knows what would have happened to either of them. One of the main reasons we are moving out and leaving this place to Cory and Billy is that we are in a very safe area. Nothing happens here without someone knowing. I wont have to worry that the baby gets outside and wanders into the road because we are so far back from it a neighbor would see her. Not only that, we have so many kids toys and the swing set in the yard she wouldnt want to leave. Other people may be able to sleep at night not knowing if their kids and grandkids are safe but we cant. I know some are worried that they will tear the place up but Cory has already fixed many of the smaller problems with the house. Right now he cant afford to buy sheetrock to fix the walls but that will come with time. Tony plans on helping him with that as Cory can afford to do it. There is no way we could rent this place out in the shape it is in but our plans had always been that if something happened to us that they would get the place. This land cannot be sold because it is heir property and belongs to everyone in Tony's family but because we have been here so long and paid the taxes on the land for over the last 20 years, Tony gets to decide who gets it after us. He has told everyone that it would be Cory. Jamie will never want to come back here and Cory will be the one to make sure Billy is okay. Yes that is an odd idea but it is what it is. We do get mad at Cory (and everyone else) from time to time but we do still love him and want to see him safe. The fact that they will be paying us some rent will allow us to do this. Its also understood that should something awful happen to us we can always come back. If Tony got hurt tomorrow or heaven forbid, died, I would always simply come home. I will have a panic button with me at the rental and if something happens to me they will come. There is no doubt of that. For some reason this little family is extremely close. We have our arguments and fights between us but when the chips are down we rally around each other. Dont forget I wouldnt be alive if it werent for Billy and Cory. Billy got me to the hospital and Cory fought with the doctor when they thought I had simply taken an overdose. Tony will be over here at least weekly. Cory will come over to the new place to cut my grass so I dont have to pay someone else to do it. We also know Cory will keep this place cut. Cory is actually my clean freak. Okay, enough. [/QUOTE]
