[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 759119, member: 3305"] Hi all, I heard from my son the other day, Saturday afternoon I think. He has a bad cold...no doubt from sleeping outside in 30 degree weather. He told me that he should have stayed and followed our instructions. He asked me if he could come back home. I told him he would need to speak with his dad. Of course dad says that I am the one who makes the final decision. 😂 He said he would get a job and pay for his own way back here. He knows I won’t drive to California again or even pay for a bus ticket now. He has for years only been determined to use drugs so it would be a real shocker to see him actually get back here on his own to our house and our rules. On another note, Our oldest son and his family came to visit us on Sunday. They had not visited us at our new home before...so this was a real treat! This is the son who for years was hooked on Meth and other drugs. He has been sober now (with AA and a sponsor) for 3 years. He has three awesome and high energy daughters! Oldest granddaughter and I went through photos, baby books and their fathers old toys. She likes to collect old things, so I gave her dads baby blanket a baby picture of him and a stuffed puppy toy that was his. She is also very artistic (like me). Middle granddaughter is also very talented. She is a gymnast and did her “floor routine” in our backyard. Just amazing! Youngest has a tap dance recital next week. She will be dressed as Mrs Clause. So happy for our oldest son and his sweet family to have the life they are enjoying today because of his sobriety. I can’t believe all the years of pain that I put myself through over this son... panic attacks, crying fits, and even losing my mind once! Miracles really do happen.❤️ Hang in there, Not Over (as dear husband says) Love, Lms [/QUOTE]
