DNJ I absolutely found Freckles to be hopeful

To know others have been down this path

And that my thoughts and feelings are not unusual

I do at times get impatient

But that is normal too

Stay the course



Oneart you are right

I am not by nature a hand holder

But old dogs must learn new tricks

Kids need dad more

And dad needs to do more hand holding

So be it



Over rainbow

DNJ has a way of hitting the nail on the head

I have been thinking about that

Is it better to have seen what I cannot unsee

I only know I am a better man today

It is what it is



Sjohn6 you are too kind

I have received and continue to receive so much here

It warms my heart to know I help others too



Journaling

Not much new to report

I am definitely hand holding the teens

Getting them off on the right foot

W continues to gradually warm up

Wants to talk more like a new friend
