    A Change of Heart

    Thanks, Stix. Ryan is an interesting character and we'll see how he continues to grow.
  3. The next week started off fairly uneventful, but that all changed on Thursday morning when I went to wake Ryan. As soon as he opened his eyes, an expression of horror crossed his face. "What's wrong?" I asked, wondering what caused his reaction. Ryan's face started to turn red, so I had a feeling that whatever the problem, it was at least mildly embarrassing for him. I waited for a response, and after several seconds he finally spoke. "I think I wet the bed, but I haven't don

    Thanks, Wes.
  9. Once Dad arrived home, things were even less hectic for us, because he'd taken over many of the duties we'd assumed after he left for Georgia. This gave each of us more time to spend with our sons, even though we tried to help Dad as much as we could so he didn't have to do all the work. On Saturday, we kept our promise and took the boys swimming again, but this time Dad joined us too. When we went into the locker room to change, Ryan undressed and nonchalantly put his clothes in the loc

    An Unusual Week

    Thanks, Stix, but it's still early to be choosing a favorite chapter. I agree, though, that it's nice to see Ryan adapting to being part of the family.

    An Unusual Week

    Thanks, Wes. I'm glad you're enjoying this. It's fun to watch the changes in Ryan.
  16. Thursday night after dinner we went in with the boys to watch TV. Dad and Pop were busy doing something else, as the rest of us herded the boys into the family room and got comfortable. Joshie sat on Dion's lap, while Trey held Wyatt, and Benny had opted to sit on Brandon's lap again. That's when Ryan stepped in front of me and spoke. "Ummm, I haven't ever done nothin' like this before, but would you mind if I sit on your lap for awhile?" I didn't hesitate and answered immediately
  17. It's nice that they're all together again, and we'll see what happens with court. Thanks, Stix.
  18. Thanks, tor.
  19. John, you know what an old softy I am. What else would you expect? lol
  20. Wes, I'm glad you liked that.
  21. He put out some great movies! RIP, Jonathan Demme.
  22. The next several days followed pretty much the same pattern, with Ryan sitting with one or both of us whenever we joined the boys in the family room. He also made sure we tucked him in bed when we went up to say goodnight, and that seemed to become a very special time for him as well. We enjoyed doing those things with him, and now we were getting ready to spend another weekend together. Brandon and I were busy doing our chores while Benny, Joshie, and Wyatt watched their Saturday mornin
