Spencer

When Spencer was five years old it was a hard time in their house. He was having lots of trouble with behavior and his brother was having non stop seizures. His mom was struggling and crying a lot so we made a change. For eight months Spencer stayed full time with his poppa and me. He would come into the Falls and go to kindergarten and spend some time with his mom and go home with me and be with me on weekends. It was a good period of time for him and seemed to help with things going on in his life. I loved having him with me and I think that is why we are so tuned into each other. He is such a special little guy and I love his zest for life.

My boy Spencer

Spencer is so very special to me. He has spent many weekends with me and I am so grateful for the time we have had together. I love the way he is so smart and figures out things. It took him a while to understand when I when tease him and tell him "I am jerking your chain" After a while he got it and sometimes will say to me
"Gramma I am jerking your chain" when he is teasing me and I don't get it right away.
There is not anything in the world I would not do for both of my boys. They are precious to me.

It just does not make sense to me

Things seemed to be going so well but for some odd reason after being allowed to take the boys with me last week for bowling I am not allowed to take them to church this week? I have been informed that if they are to go that Johnny must pick them up and transport them? This didn't make sense before and it really does not make sense now.

Feels strange when this is one way and can change another time. I guess I just need to deal with this. I have mulled over in my mind leaving this area and this just makes me think that these circumstances will lead to making this step a future possibility.
