I always had "extra" sons with my own three..and sometimes had daughters too. Now some 30+ years later they still come here when then need a "time-out" from life. They bring their own children and they all say Miss Connie has rules and she will enforce them. Their children like being here as much as they did.. they even call and want to come over without the parents. My door is always open and they know they can always talk to me about anything. I always get hugs and an I love you when they leave. I get introduced as their "second" mom to their friends. It really makes me feel good that they care that much.
