Today I got a text from my sister and my neece gabby,there was a bomb threat at the middle school...all three schools are side by side and i have girls in all three school...so they had to evact...
I went to pick them up Gabby 16,her best friend desiree 17,caitlin 10 and vanessa 6.

My sister is kind of seeing desiree's dad and she lives with my sister,she was a real spoiled brat at first,but she has started coming around say please and thank you when i would do something for her,and when she text's good morning or hi she will add love you..Desiree's mom died a few years agao.

She has just gotten a job,at a resturant and I told them today we would go to taco bell for lunch,,,she handed me $5 I said what is that and she said for my lunch I have money...I told her thank you for the offer but i will go ahead and get it keep your money...

    Let her know you notice the difference in her, and that you approve of it and you are proud of her, as I'm sure you are. Encourage good behavior at any age!
    I don't post a lot, but I read here quite a bit. In my estimation, you and Nunn are excellent role models....you seem to have positive impacts on the young people you come into contact with. The world needs more folks like you! Kudos! [^]

    I was the teenager that my mother thought I would be an alcoholic,drug user,and have two kids before I decided to drop out of school,,,,,boy did i prove her wrong......
