Driver and i's boys said last night/early morning....that they got one of the best gifts they have ever had.

 

i am Jordan and Jeremy's stepdad, i met them when they were about 1yr and 4 months old.  they are 15 now and are mine in every way i can think of.  thier real dad, Drivers ex, has stayed in touch over the years and has tried his best to be involved in thier lives. thats a little back story.

 

Jordan and Jeremy's Dad has been going through a hard time.  his marriage of 9 yrs is inches from divorce.  the other night Driver told him that if he wanted he could come visit J &J, he is always welcome in our home.  yesterday morning i got a call, he was almost to Dallas and was wondering the drive time.  then said, "this is ok with you?", i reiterated what Driver had already told him, and proceeded to give him weather reports for his 1000 mile journey.

he arrived about 1 AM and woke our kids up.......what a wonderful thing to behold! our boys could not believe thier eyes and thought they were dreaming.

i came from a broken home, and my Dad did this one year.......i will remember it forever.

the best thiing we can give our children, is time with the ones we love.

 

Merry Christmas!

What a great gift Sensi! It is always encouraging to hear the parents in a divorced family doing what is right for the kids.

Takes a big man and a solid relationship to be able to open your home and the hearts involved. Nice work Ded, Randy.
