Life goes on

Wow, it's been a while.  A few updates:

Elder, the one we thought wouldn't work or go to college is doing both. He began a volunteer position as a sophomore in high school that turned into a paying position his junior year;  and that happened because he won a paying job elsewhere first.

He's been at one place nearly 3 years and the other a year and a half.

He walked with his class in June, and is going to Votech and community college currently for business and math. And he's getting around by himself with Lyft and public transit.

Younger's transition to high school has been less traumatic than middle school. He just finished his first season with marching band and is going out for the bowling team next week.

We're still struggling in the friends department. They will eventually find their people, but it's kind of hard to watch them struggle until that happens.

And....reading back over the arc of the years, I am grateful for where we are, because our problems are good ones to have ones I never dreamed we would experience.

All good things.
