    When Brandon and I arrived home on Monday, Dad came over to tell me something. “You received another package and I put it in your bedroom.” “Thank you. Do you know where Ryan is?” “I believe he’s up in his room doing his homework.” “Great. After I check in with the other boys I’ll go up and see if he’s ready to take a break. If he is, I’ll open the box so we can see what’s inside at the same time.” When I went to say hello to the other boys, I also asked if they had any homew

    Yes, this was a convoluted case with many twists and turns, but justice prevailed. It's difficult to say why Hubbard is still so fixated on the Currie family, but he is and still trying to get them in trouble even though they aren't involved. Fortunately, Josh had let Mark borrow the car during that time to attend his conference, otherwise the boys might have been convicted and all of their lives would have turned out differently. You're probably right in suspecting that Hubbard isn't done with the family, but how long will he continue his vendetta against them and what will it take to get him to stop? If being paralyzed and in a wheel chair doesn't do it, what will? Possibly someone's death will be the only way to end the antagonism.

    September Birthdays

    Thanks, flesco, I'm glad you're still enjoying this story.

    That was very generous of you to give up your free time that way. My uncle was retired at the time and he would go to the nursing home every day during the lunch hour to have lunch with his wife. He'd either take something with him or pick it up along the way and then they would eat together. I had to give him a lot of credit for never missing a day until she died, because it was difficult for him to see how she was deteriorating.

    It's not exactly a penchant. Cody was based on a real character and I decided to portray his life without changing the details. Albert was getting old and had health problems, and unfortunately it led to his death as well. Brent was a different issue and I decided to use his death to illustrate a problem I had seen in the news around that time of young people not in seat belts dying in accidents. I'm not a bloodthristy guy looking to create problems and kill off all of my characters, however I do appreciate your feedback.

    Yes, this was a very tough and emotional couple of chapters. You're right, the death of a child is the toughest thing a child could go through, and their worst fear, but he happens more than we'd like to think. It was also good the Graham was able to be there, and it was a tough time on him, and the doctor was very good and patient with them. I apologize if the Cody story line was tough on you, but it was based on a real Cody and I didn't want to vary it too much. Thanks for the feedback.

    Yes, Graham's gift put him in a real dilemma, know what he sees in the shadows and how he feels about Cody. It's a difficult situation.

    Thank you, and both planning the haunted house and the birthday party taxed my creativity.

    Yes, that is always difficult, but especially so for Richard, since he just came into this family. I had an aunt with Alzheimers and it was difficult to watch her decline, especially when she didn't recognize family members.
  10. Bill W
    It's a difficult time for them, especially when your beliefs clash with what's happening in your own family.

    Yes, Cody was fortunate to have ended up in this family and he knows and appreciates this fact. Andrew is also using his talents to capture Cody at this time, something that won't be lost no matter what happens in the future,. Thanks for the feedback, Butcher.

    Thank you, Stix, and it's nice to hear from you again. By the way, I will be announcing my decision about whether I'll continue with a book 4 before Book 3 ends.

    Thank you. Writing these stories forces me to think out of the box.

    Yes, Trey had made quite an impression with his script, as well as the work he put into it, and now we have to wait and see how he makes out at the next level.

    Yes, things seem to be going well. The Wyatt, Hayden, and Hunter's 'Harry Potter' birthday party went off without a hitch, Ryan has some new ideas for the haunted house and talked some of his friends into helping out, and Julie and her roommate are getting along well. Not only that, but Julie has been very helpful with making plans for the adoptions go smoothly, so everything is moving forward nicely. Thanks for the feedback, Butcher, and we keep moving forward.

    Monday night after dinner, I met with Benny, Joshie, and Ryan in the rec room. “As you know, we’re here to discuss our plans for this year’s Haunted House. Ryan and I have talked about a few things already, so I’m going to let him explain his ideas.” Ryan covered the things we’d discussed and showed them the mask and the animated device we’d purchased, as well as the photos of the other items that would be arriving soon. Benny and Joshie were impressed with what we’d done so far, and then I

    Ah, I when I said sinister I was thinking of Hubbard's ultimate goal. I guess we were both going in opposite directions.

    Thank you, Lizzy, and I'm sorry that the final few chapters of Book 6 caused you so much distress.
  20. Bill W
    This was based on a real boy and I was encourage to write it as it happened, not as I wished it happened.
  21. Bill W
    Not a problem. It's why I make a synopsis for every story I write so I don't have to go back and re-read every chapter when someone makes a comment.
  22. Bill W
    Yes, being calm, cool, and watching older brothers learn how to drive probably helped.
  23. Bill W
    Absolutely, so let's hope he isn't Cody's father.
  24. Bill W
    If it happens, it won't be me - it will be the illness.
  25. Bill W
    I suppose this is in respect to Cody's situation.
