Sometimes as a mom I wonder if anything I am doing is really making a difference, especially when it comes to Brogan and Codey getting along and being nice to each other. Well, the other day I had a glimmer of hope! Brogan and Christian wanted to go in the backyard to play baseball. Codey, hearing baseball, asked if he could pitch them some balls for them to hit. I thought that with Codey out there there would surely be arguing within 5 minutes. To my surprise they were out there for over an hour with NO arguing!

I watched them from the window with a smile as Joshua and Codey both helped Brogan and Christian with their stance as they were batting and fielding, and thought to myself "this IS working and there IS hope!". I took these pictures from the window inside the house so as not to disturb the bonding that was going on. I tried to call Jeremy while I was in the moment but couldn't get him. They were so cute!

Rylen wanted to get in on the action but I wouldn't let him outside.
Here he is with Christian's batbag.
This brought tears to my eyes because you KNOW I know how you feel - especially the past couple of weeks - it's been really hard. This, too, gives ME hope! Keep it up, my friend!
