Ok just joking it's not that bad, but today when I had all the kids in the house after school, this was the memory that came to mind.
Mehkya and Cayden started school today. Kmac 3rd and Cayden K. It was pretty ho hum for Mehkya. She has the routine down now. She sure looked cute though. Cayden got over his lack of excitement. You could tell he was nervous when he walked through the door, but when I picked him up he had a huge smile on his face. He said he really enjoyed it and his teacher told us tonight that he did really well. I was proud to see that he did great.
Night time has been tough on Cayden. Every night he starts crying and missing his momma. I am running out of ways to comfort him. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I am pretty much black and white and my reaction is to tell him that he is going to be here for a while and there isn't anything anyone can do about, so stop crying and go to bed, but I know I can't say that. Tonight was tough but I think he is pretty tired. At last check both boys are sound asleep.
Cam and I hung out today. We dropped the kids off and headed to the gym. He was nervous about going to the kids club but when I picked him up he said he had a good time. At our gym there is this big trampoline with webbing that goes up about 8 flights. You can climb the webbing all the way to the top. He really enjoyed it. He wasn't able to get to the third level because of his size but he tried hard. Many times he would fall all the way back down, laughing, and trying again. I will say this about Cam, when he is tired he isn't much fun to be around. He need and took a nap today. Another thing about Cam (and I was warned) is that boy can EAT!! I thought Kennedy was a hungry child but goodness, Cam is going to eat us out of house and home!
My next semester of school started today and I am still without books. It has been a frustrating few weeks dealing with the VA, but I am thankful my school is being paid for. I only have 4 classes left to finish my Masters in Christian Education and I am ready to be D U N.....
I'm leaving tonight saying how amazing my wife is. She is the definition of strength.

You just need to tell Cayden that when he goes to sleep, he can always see and talk to his mommy in his dreams, that he will eventually go home, the thing with him is he is very smart, he knows whats going on to degree, just be honest with him and assure him mommy and daddy are doing everything they have to in order to have them back home...hang in there, yall are a blessing, looks like cam had fun and yes he eats ALOT!! Love you all
Hey Justin, just wanted to say I think your awesome!!! I think your doing about all you can do and what Candi said might help too. Just thought I'd tell you something I did for Dusty that helped him when Walter died. Dusty was afraid he would forget him (the boys may feel something similar)... So I got some photos of Walter and Dusty and some of just Walter and made him his own special little photo album that he could look at anytime he wanted to. To this day he keeps it close by. Hope it all keeps going as good as it is for all of you. I think they will adjust before you know it. You and Rebecca are doing a GREAT job!!! Love you all.
