We had to bump the boys visit up a day this week and I think they had a great time ,I know I did. Our newest young man was finally willing to pick one of my prized hot wheels/Match box cars off the wall to take home with him as a reminder of our fun times together .I let each of the boys drive one of our old cars from the shop to line up in front of the house to wash all the cars .They had a blast playing and washing the cars and getting to drive them that short distance and no they cant drive them on the street . We always look forward to their visit each week and I hope they feel the same.

You are so cool flash. Those boys have to light up when they get behind the wheel. Many boys never get the opportunity to drive a car like yours, and for them to think that you trust them enough to get behind the wheel, must make them feel so special. You and Joan are just so amazing to welcome them into your life. Wow...

We had the boys over tonight to change the oil ,replace brake pads and just general maintenance type things as Wade just got his first wheels .We also found out that we will be getting another young man soon (if we wish said the foster parents ) .Of course we said bring him on ,we cant wait to meet him .They keep me quite busy as they each need their own time with me when we are in the shop and Joan spoils them in the house .They are such a joy to have and spend time with .

John, I can only imagine how excited you are to get another young man. I know that he will be another lucky young man.

We arent really doing anything special ,just letting them be boys once or twice a week .They are under a lot of stress at home and we try to take some of that off of them at our place and just let them have some fun. These boys are really special to us and just need a little spoiling .

And you and Joan need to do the spoiling. They enjoy your company just as much as you enjoy theirs.

We really enjoy our time with them and they with us ,so I guess we all win in this game .They make you laugh and sometimes they make you cry ,but its good for us and I hope good for them.I think sometimes they just need to be loved and have someone to love back .I wish we could do more for them but then again they need to learn to work toward their goals .Thanks for all your support and encouragement.
