I forgot to post that we got our newest young man a few weeks ago ,his name is Brandon and he is 18 years old and a really sweet kid .He has a young son 6 months old by a former girl friend but he is very involved with his son. He is very smart and is training to be a transmission tech at AAMCO and he also loves the old cars .He didnt quite know what to think of us to start but he is now just part of the family .I dont know just how big our family will get but they are all welcome here.

Your family will get as big as your heart John. And as far as I know, you and Joan have huge hearts so there is plenty of room for these boys.

I had told Brandon a while badk that we would like to get to know him better and out of the blue he called me yesterday and said he would like to come over and let us get to know him more. .We had a meal together and just chatted and the more we get to know him the more we love him. Then Joan asked if he wanted to go cruisin in the vert and he couldnt get in the car fast enough.He is a really great kid and we feel lucky to be a small part of his life.When he got ready to leave he said he loved us ,what a great time we had together .

I think Joan and I are the lucky ones to be a part of something so special with these young men. We will have a house full tonight ,they will all be there and they are bringing over some friends .Its been a few weeks since we have had them all together at once and we are looking forward to tonight.

Man, I wish I had been free for the evening. I would have stopped over. It may have taken me about 13 hours or so, to get there, but I would have loved to meet your boys.

Its been a while since I gave an update on our boys ,we have a total of 7 counting the 3 that are no longer with us weekly .One went back to his natural family a while back and we plan to be back in touch with him soon .Another was adopted to his forever home and we had him over for dinner last week and one is going back to his adoptive family .We got another one last night ,his name is Dakota and he is a lot of fun and is a real sweet guy .We look forward to getting to know him better which wont take long as he was with us tonight as well .So we still have 4 regular boys every week and whenever they want to come over they are always welcome .

It is so nice to hear that some of the boys still come over after they leave the boys home. I know that has to mean a lot to you and Joan.
Thanks for the update. By the way, who is the one who is helping you with the cam ?
