Life, Love & Miracles (part 2)

As our relationship grew, the trust they had in us also grew.  Many times they would call us in the middle of the night when things didn’t go quite right at home.  Even in those early years we had tears for them and through them our bond became stronger.

I personally got to play a bigger role when I picked Autumn and Amber up every day for school one semester.    I knew that they did not attend every day and really wanted to encourage them to go.  So during that fall semester I made sure they at least got to school. They didn’t always stay but at least I knew they got there.  The next semester of that year we allowed Amber to drive our spare car and so she then drove them both to school after that. Previous to that we got to teach Amber how to drive and put her through driver’s training.  Why is it that she always liked to hug semis?!?!?! I think that was the beginning of my gray hair.

Together we have shared many life moments.  From parent teacher conferences to the births of all three of our younger kids.  We took them both to camp. We celebrated with Amber when she graduated from high school. When we got the news of the death of Melissa’s brother, they were with us.
