Gradulation and fun with friends

Graduation night- me and the young man.  As part of graduation, he has indicated that his name can be used on social media.  So no more little man or rocket, just Aidan

the family before heading out.  It is interesting to me, sis always puts herself between me and Aidan.  I started noticing it a few weeks and kept track.  Any time, he and I were next to each other, she moved into the gap.
More on this later.

Mam and Me

All done- it is official.

the boy looking so happy at church.
 
So between the last day of school (Thursday) and Sunday- sis was reunited with her mom.  She no longer lives with us- which is a good thing.  I asked to have her removed in March, but she had to stay until the end of school.  On the last day of school, the social worker texted me to tell me that she could not get sis home until Monday so I would have to do it.  NOPE- that is your job and I had repeatedly said she could not stay past 02Jun.  In the end the social worker found a co worker to pick up sis and take her home to mom.  I spent Saturday being  pretty weepy and so far this week, I have been really distracted.  I really did love her, I just cant live with her nor could I let her destroy my family with all the anger she has toward her mother.  She took all that anger out on me and Aidan. 
 
 

Soccer season ended on Friday night (thank you, Jesus).  the boys were 2nd in their group and the team was promoted to the highest league in the state.  WOHOOO. 

Tuesday, we got to see Mrs. Patty to have our teeth cleaned.

Tuesday night was "camping" cooking with the boy scouts.  this is my 'twin' He dyed his hair the same color as mine.



 
that's about it.  Aidan is at boy scout camp next week, so likely no pictures until he gets home.
 
Love and hugs,
