Double break

Well my kid said go big or go home I guess. Somehow he managed to break his tooth and break his retainer šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø. Not really sure how that happened. But leave it to him to do it.

We left and went to the gas station, got 10 gallons, just enough for now since he had a few things he needed to work on before he drives it…

You are still walking and can feel yet you are telling…

I realize that the intentions of some are good but then…

But their bond is one that I can’t explain. They have been together in even the most traumatic event like the times when child protective services took them away from me on the spot. I remember that like it…
