I went up to Maryland to get my oldest son checked into a hospital this week. My husband and i drove straight through to make sure we got up there in time to get him to the Public Defender to get his court date postponed since he was going to be in the hospital. My son than decided to tell us that he didn't need to be checked into the hospital. Needless to say i was beyond pissed that we had done all of this to get him checked in and to get him the help he needed. My husband and i know that we did all we can for him and if something happens to him we will not blame ourselves because we did all we could. I'm just so sad that he wouldn't get the help he needs at least for his children.
There was one bright spot of the trip, we got to see all three of the grandchildren on Monday. We picked up Taylor our 7 year old grandson and then went to pick up Tristan (2) and Gracie (9 months) and spent the day with them. I loved spending time with them and miss them so much. We spent the night at Taylors other grandparents on Monday night and left Tuesday to come back home. Taylor is quite a sports fanatic and has to be dressed in the appropiate uniform to play whatever sport we are playing. We played baseball with him and before we could begin the game we had to sing the National Anthem and then we could carry on with the game. That boy has quite an arm on him and was hitting the ball across the street to the neighbors yard which is quite a distance. I also got to attend his first swimming lesson class and then we went to dinner came home and he read us a story "Green Eggs and Ham" in the middle of the story he told my husband and i that Dr. Seuss was the best writer ever. We played baseball again on Tuesday before we left and had to sing the "National Anthem" again before we could start our game. We were exhausted after the game and we were in the basement getting our stuff together and i turned around and Taylor is jogging on the treadmill. Lol. That boy has an unbelievable amount of energy and when we were leaving he was playing football with his momom. His dadad competed in a triathalon and Taylor wants to someday compete in a children's triathalon. The best part was when he said he needed some Yia Yia (that's Greek for grandma and that's what he calls me) time and the next day he told my husband he needed some Pawpaw time. I love all of my grandchildren but Taylor is the first one and he is my heart and soul.
