The end hasn't been written yet. Every time I decide to end this story something comes up that prolongs it. Maybe this story won't have an end. Nah it will end hopefully by Christmas.
-
Armand has a lot of love for these children including his own grandchildren. It wouldn't surprise me if he didn't spend more time with them in the game room. That seems where he makes the most physical contact with them.
-
He is quite proud of his cottage and rightly so. I bet the cottage has a bed room for them.
-
It is a continuation of his legacy. He will not be forgotten
-
I have known people who have said they are the happiest when they are surrounded by children. Looking into a child's eyes, one can see hope and love. The purest of emotions.
-
And always will be. Personalities don't change with age if they are true.

This story is about life, the life of two men. You have shared their laughs and cries, their highs and lows. Life lives on, but there is also an end. But we have a few more chapters to go.

t was too early to go to sleep, “Let’s go and see Uncles Tommy, Pepe, and Michael.” A unanimous agreement. I locked up, left a note for Colin, loaded the van and we were off to the Home. “Grandad, do they have peanuts?” I looked at him, he knew if they did it would be gone. So we detoured to Uncle Ivan’s for peanuts. The problem would be space. As it turned out, Ronnie’s five boys decided to walk back to the Home. I wasn’t in favor of that until Ivan Junior said he would take them

In all of my travels, I found soup a constant menu item. If I had to list one food that is truly international, it would be soup. Carl has a right to be concerned, but I think I heard a creaky rocking chair. I was working on my final chapter and ended up adding more. I am beginning to share some of my reader's concerns, is this story ever going to end.

Most prisoners do not like child molesters, I am told. Recently a man was convicted of child abuse, and sentenced to jail. They found him hung in his cell
-
Soup was a staple at my home as well. I still enjoy a bowl of good soup. On a cold winter day, soup was enjoyed and a regular winter fare.
-
You are welcome. Carl's fears are real. The Home has security because two men tried to get to Carl. His fears are real for him.
-
Did you hear the rocking chair? Armand did.
-
I believe Carl feels not all of those men who abused him are in jail. His fear is to him real, I think Carla, Armand and Colin will help him.
-
Ronnie's first two children were girls, his third child was a boy. Julia his wife said no more. So he went to the Home and adopted four future football players

Mornings are the same for me, but this morning was different. I started to pack for our trip to Paris. I was happy, Carl came rushing in, “Where’s my son?” I pointed to the bed. “You scared me, Dad.” “Carl, sit down and tell me why you are acting this way about the baby.” “I’m afraid that my father or his friends will come and grab him.” “Your father is in jail along with his two friends. They can’t hurt you.” “People in jail talk. He probably told his friends why he is

Now would I do that? This was going to be my final chapter but something happened as I started to write I didn't stop. so now I have a few more short chapters. Not sure when I'll get to the finale but it must come.
-
I remember watching them. Thanks for this sample. I'll have to get Alexa to play some of their music
-
Yes, it is. I wonder how much has changed in Paris since their last visit/
-
Yes and maybe relive some of the past. I expect you will hear, "Do remember ..." as they relive Paris after being away for a time.
-
It is possible. i know you all read each other comments and i am glad. Pierre is proud of his cottage that he and his mother shared. Now he wants to share it with his adopted Pop and Dad.
-
I think GG has visited all of the boys but she hadn't talked to all of the boys. Charles will get an opportunity to see his mother and dad. i'm sure of it. I swear I'm going to grease that rocker
-
Pierre arrived home for his quarterly meeting. He brought photos of his cottage. I looked at them, if I had to design a cottage for him it would look exactly like this. “Dad, I want you and Pop to come back with me.” “I don’t know Pierre. At our age traveling isn’t a pleasure anymore.” “Dad, we’ll be flying the company plane. There is room where you and Pop can lay down. Please, I want you to see the cottage.” “I won’t promise but I’ll discuss it with Pop.” That evening,

Colin's devotion is remarkable.
