Earlier this year, in front of my eyes, my 15 year old walked into court in that orange jumpsuit, sandals, and shackles. We were there with three other sets of parents we barely knew (our son had two completely different set of friends...one set we knew and another we didn't), and they Michelle (wife, mom, grandma, daughter, sister, friend, co-worker, and striving to be a Proverbs 31 woman)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15073514366455942396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29822720.post-91721611537925359142007-04-11T07:13:00.000-06:002007-04-11T07:13:00.000-06:00Dawn, I wanted to answer your question about the f...Dawn, I wanted to answer your question about the flowers here before I forget.

Please don't feel guilty for one minute. I think we all want to believe the best of our children. We just can't imagine this sort of trouble. I always think - there but for the grace of God...

Yes, there is not fairness or justice when it comes to drugs.

The drugs and the firearm part nearly scared me to death. But at least he tried to keep his friend alive.

Thank God that Kevin was arrested, as harsh as that sounds.<BR/><BR/>Some dear friends of mine are raising their 2 year-old grandson. They had to go to court to get custody of him because their son and his wife were neglecting the baby. Drugs, of course.
