Update On Our Boys

Well our boys came Dec 20 and have been here ever since. We had a great Christmas. The boys are adjusting well to our home and rules.

After Christmas I took them shopping for some new school clothing since they wore uniforms at the previous school. It was so much fun watching them shop and try on jeans. I also took the younger one to get a new pair of more "stylish" glasses instead of the "Medicaid" frames he currently had but didn't like wearing. Haven't had a bit of problems with him wearing his new glasses. What a boost to his self esteem.

The day before school started back I took them both to meet their teachers, drop off their school supplies and tour the school. I thought this would help to ease the anxiety of starting a new school. They both have begun to make friends and are doing well in school.

Our local stock show was this last Saturday and they were amazed. Seeing all their new formed friends showing sheep, pigs, goats and steers. They both want to show so they can win a belt buckle.

They are in the middle of the livingroom floor now playing with the legos they are both GREAT kids and we are so blessed to have them
