Hi, Regina! Yes, it's me, Spivey! I will always remember how encouraging you were when I told you about my nephew's adoption of his mother-in-law's two children when his MIL passed away. He is still coping, but one is a pre-teen and the other is a pre-pre teen now, and getting somewhat mouthy as they usually do at these ages. He has a now-married daughter from a previous marriage and I'm not sure he knows how to cope with going through it all over again! Maybe you can give me some pointers to pass along to him and his wife. I am back for now, hoping I won't stay absent so long next time, but I feel fresh and invigorated after a much needed the break.
