This year has been full of them, most of the ones in the last 7 months have been really good changes.
2 weeks ago my oldest stepson, Dylan who is 15 moved in with us. At first I wasn't sure what to expect, our house was already pretty cramped, Adam is gone most of the time with school, I wasn't sure how he would feel about the close quarters with Aidan and Zander but I have to say that Dylan moving in has been one of the best things to happen to our family in years. He fit in from day one as if he had been living with us all along. He is amazing with Zander.... his patience is never ending. If Zander wants to play some silly game or just sit and make faces at each other Dylan is his man! Adam is so happy to finally have one of his older kids back in his home full time. Dylan is such a good kid, he is always willing to help around the house, with a smile... no matter what we ask him to do. He is happy and he is fun to be around. I really think having him here has bonded my husband and me.... our whole family, even stronger than we were before. Zander is in heaven having his big brother around and Aidan is over the moon... Dylan has always been his idol!
Today Adam is finishing his last class of law school.... HE IS DONE!!! I am so proud and happy for him! He can't take the bar until Feb. but to have the pressure of law school off his shoulders is such a huge thing! I am feeling good and starting to look for a job. the 3 boys start school in early August, my baby is going to Kindergarten, how did that happen???
Our house is a happy and peaceful place right now and I am so so thankful. I am confident that Dylan's move will change the lives of everyone in this family for the better!
