If you are interested I told part of Josh's story yesterday in my 365 album. I'm so caught up in this right now and every picture I send to him is his favorite. I guess in those circumstances no matter what I would have captured would have been perfect. But this I really like. No matter how foolish we are, how many mistakes we make - we tend to love our children. And this guy really does. And he is so aware that he has let them down.
@anazad511 Thank you for the prayers. They need them. The kids will be with his ex wife. Obviously not a good relationship so what will they think of him when he returns. He is the first person that I have ever known in this situation and was amazed how open he was about what to expect. He is so lost and those little ones are in pain.
@filsie65 It is a practical way. I kept trying to think what I could do for the boys and then it was like something hit me in the head. i was nervous, apprehensive and ended up having a good time with them.
Oh my, oh my. Reading it, my heart shrank. It hurts. You are doing something very good, and hopefully you can keep close to them if the situation allows... Receive a hug from me.
@anazad511 Thanks - I need a hug right now. I found out that of all things I can send Josh soap. He will only get two bars a month like from a hotel room. So, practical me, I plan on doing that sort of thing. As far as the boys go I have never met their mother. I have asked if I could see them but she has said that nobody that knows Josh can see the boys......I never met them until yesterday afternoon and fell for them.
What a precious photo of the love between a little boy and his daddy. I'm sorry that you have had such a tough couple of days. I can see that you have a heart of gold. They are blessed to have you in their life.
