Great days ahead, at least for the dogs. 6 divided by 30

While they were eating and talking, I took out Joey’s clothes and set them on the sofa. Walking into the kitchen, “Steven, Joey’s clothes are on the sofa.” I watched my boys, I felt proud. They weren’t angels but came close. With our 30 boys the usual argument or toss up occurred, but for all of it, the boys policed themselves and all Maria had to do was look at them and they quieted down. After all she fed them so they better listen. Joey soon became one of my sons. “Dad, sometime I thi

Yes, you are right. As the boys get older, they will be going on to colleges, who knows what they will become. We do know they are placed around the world. more or less carrying on what Carleton started..
-
He had some fears as any street boy might have. But. once he met the boys, I'm sure he was glad he went with Carleton
-
That is being street-wise. You sleep with one eye open. I'm not sure how old Alex is but he is definitely younger than Carleton. Yes Carleton is in his mid fifties. My guess Alex is between 25 and 30. Probably more closer to thirty
-
He does and now has his own room
-
They do.Sometimes it's hard to look at Alex as a man and not as a boy. He certainly fits right in

In the morning, I heard the shower, I called room service for breakfast for two. Joey came out dressed, “Joey I called room service for breakfast. I’m going to take my shower, if it comes give this to the bellboy.” I went and took my shower, got dressed and when I came out, breakfast was set up. I finished packing, “Do I add your new clothes to my suitcase or not?” “If I want to come back, you promise to bring me back?” “Yes, and I’ll repeat this promise in front of my crew.” I p

The one common thread that undermines all of this is money;. There are people who will do anything if a monetary gain is possible. They have no respect for human life, money is their god.
-
I think you are right. He'll be very glad
-
I think Jimmy will convince him to go
-
I don't think they will have any problems. Joey will have a birth certificate which can be obtained easily, all Carleton will need are adoption papers.
-
His reaction is normal. I think the crew will convince him, particularly Jimmy
-
The next chapter is up. That will answer your questions.

These boys won't commit any crimes. Think about it, they were forced to live on the street, and heaven knows whaat they were forced to do. They don't want to go back to that, so I expect that they are well behaved and very grateful for being off the streets.

I was awaken by the phone, I had a package that was marked urgent. I asked that it be sent up. It should be the application for a warrant from Judy. It was, and now I had to find a federal judge to give me the warrant. I got dressed, called Don and told him I had to go out, would he see that Joey got breakfast and if I was lucky I’d be back before lunch. I called my client and asked him to meet me at the federal court house. Joey was awake, “Joey, get your shower and dress, the guys will

Gobble, Gobble. Thank you. And the same to you
-
Yes, Carleton is wise enough to know what these boys expect, every thing a price.
-
Yes, he said something about his dad's barbecuing skills. I noticed the tears when he said that. I'll bet he was tossed out because he (1) told his dad he was gay or (2) his dad tried something with him and he ran away. Whatever caused him to be on the street, will be Joey's right to tell.
-
I agree, the driver had all of the papers, passed border legally and then stopped. I hope it isn't smugglers with more children.

It is natural for a street boy to be wary of any older men doing what Carleton has done. But knowing Carleton he'll soon win the boy over.
-
If this story wasn't written under the title of Fiction, then you could horse whip me for making untrue statements. But you are right, except for family discipline which can be. in certain cases, death.
-
I think Alex thinks of himself more as an older brother to those kids.
-
I'm beginning to think you wished you were one of the boys.

You and I share love of eating. Actually, must pizzerias have a reserved of sauces, so all they had to doc was cook the pasta,, thaw and reheat the sauce.
