Thank you for all the good thoughts. All of the kids are doing as well as could be expected. I had to go buy another refrigerator for the garage for the extra food, but other than that it has been pretty seamless. The Southern Baptist church was a trip. The relative there was extremely uninterested in getting to know any of the kids. I told them it was because of the shock of seeing them with me. Football has started up for us, so now I have 4 boys in football, which is tough, but my wife and daughter, who hate sports, have been awesome by helping take kids to practice and sitting there until it's over. Davidisha is in summer school because she basically never went this whole year. I convinced the school to give her a chance to test out of the grade, which they did. She is in summer school and being tutored daily for reading comprehension. I am most proud of my 3 own children. They have been sacrificing a lot the past week without much of any complaint. Families in the area have been great to, in making sure the 4 new kids are invited to birthday parties that my kids are invited to
Great to hear MM. Someday when me and the wife aren't living in a studio apartment it'd be great to do something like this. But that is just talk and you're actually out there helping out. Cheers to you and your family. Sounds like the kids found a great home!
One of their relatives attends the church. The social worker set it up with her to meet the kids and get to know them, so they could have a sense of family. It is also very important, according to the social worker, to keep some of the same cultural things the same for them. They had attended a southern Baptist church before, so everyone thought it would be a good idea.
Gotcha. Real classless by the relative at the church to act like that. People are allowed to act like douchebags at church? Props to you!
MM, nothing but admiration here for what you're doing. Very few people would do so with the kind of good attitude you are showing. BTW, if any of the kids show some real football prowess, UO is a great school.
I have a niece that just graduated from OSU with a civil engineering degree and another niece in the program now
They are certainly not ugly. I would say they have girl next door looks. No trouble finding boyfriends.
Honestly I haven't ogled them as much as maybe you would have liked me to. Blonde, busty, not fat. They come from a long line of busty females on their mothers side
nice My neice is going to be one of the cheer leaders for the Beavers next year, and to make it worse...or better..she is a scholarship student, micro bio etc, too fkn smart needless to say, her boyfriend kisses her ass, lol, looks , brains and the potential bread winner hahaha.
