Crazy Times

So July was crazy time around here.
Huge gathering of people in and around the house (25 of them!
Step-mother is diagnosed with cancer.
I am struggling to keep my mind from going insane planning a trip to Alaska and now one to Colorado.
Then she dies.
And I get to finish the planning, knowing she will not be there.
And then my son moves back in.
And is hit with a paternity suite!
Say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?????

Turns out the kid is his.
I could tell it just seeing him for the first time on Sunday!
He is a twin of the boy I adopted in northern Russia in 1997!

So it seems Ivan is less than intelligent.
sigh
And he will get to pay for this one for a very long time!
sigh
I have no doubt this will only temporarily slow down his godlessness.

Grandchild number 4
Second born into less than ideal conditions
Hopefully he will not follow his father's failures.
