First you have to read this entry from nearly 3 years ago. It's a great story.
And then this week, I get this email -- and I have received permission to post picture and story from Dad and Son.
Scott will be graduating this year with plans on 2 years of a junior college before going into the Navy.
He got a job over the past 2 summers and bought and paid for his own Truck. He’s matured into quite the guy!
It’s so hard to believe, that when I got Scott, he was classified as mentally retarded with disruptive behavior on his AdmissionReviewDissmissal from his School ( ARD ) … it’s amazing teaching a kid to read, …where they can go..
… By the way … I have success times 2!
Brandon (who I matched Tim with around the time of that last entry), who will be 15 this year is following in right behind Scott. He’s an A/B student, getting trophy after trophy in martial arts in concert band, and still hugs me every morning and every night before bed.
They’re happy kids! … ( Heck, I’m happy too !! )
Again … Thanks for giving us the moments to treasure, and the future to look forward too.
See why I still keep encouraging adoption? You never know what kid will end up being a Scott.
I still pray for Scott's sister. I hope she found her family.
