Don't have much to say. I just wanted to drop in and let you know I was thinking about you.
I'm glad you recognized the pattern of negativity you were falling into. That isn't you, know what I mean, Brother?!
As a father, I want to say how sorry I am to hear about S5's experience. At least he has such a loving father to help him through this. Your son is one lucky boy. I also pray for the other little boy involved. You probably understand the sources and causes of that behavior better than anybody here, so I'm sure you know how to handle the situation. I'll pray for God's strength and guidance for you.
As a note, you'll have my company over here very soon. I just received confirmation that the D is going through. It won't be long now.
