Tonight I got the opportunity to talk to Grandma (my mom) on the phone for a while.  We usually don't have much of a chance to really talk.  In fact it is kind of rare.

Tonight was different.  We talked a lot about the boys and my current frustrations.  We talked about how NOTHING seems to motivate Middle Boy.  NOTHING.  I talked to her about my plan to have him wait to get his driver's license until he is done with therapy.  We talked about how I wish I didn't have to do that, because it would free up so much time if he could drive himself. 

We talked about how I really can't trust him to do or go where he is supposed to, because he doesn't see importance in being trustworthy.

We talked about Younger Boy and how there is some growth there, but how frustrating it is to never know if anyone is telling you the truth.

We talked about how having Boarder live with us has been a blessing even though it is sometimes annoying.

I appreciate both of my parents immensely.  I sometimes wish our relationship was different, but tonight...I really enjoyed the discussion tonight.

Praises for having AMAZING parents who love me.
