I'm holding up pretty well, thank you for asking. I had forgotten our children were the same age! Yes, both still struggling. GFG30 calls about every other week, last call he still hadn't been transferred to prison, was still at County Jail. He is ready to get on with it and start the process. But, all the time he sits "counts" towards his sentence no matter where he's at, so there's that.
I would be so grateful if THIS would be the thing that FINALLY helps him. I've already got my hopes up, silly me, but it's easier to have that attitude for right now. After all, I don't need to "worry" about him for like 5 years, so that's good news, right?!
Thankfully, Baby J's mom and I have stayed on good terms. She even took Baby J (who is 7 years old now!! AND in perfect health!!) to see GFG30 right before sentencing, which was above and beyond what I would've done, but my son was thrilled to see his son, so I'm glad for that.
How about you? Your J was the bowler, am I remembering that right? And/or the softball player? Gosh it's been so long! I can't believe how the years just roll by.
