Introduction
effective about an hour ago we have a new grandchild, our 5th .... our daughter is our oldest child .... she's never married and almost 4 years ago she became a foster parent to a 17 month old boy .... Landen just turned 5, the pictures below were taken a few months ago when he caught his first fish at a pond belonging to one of our sons .... rules and regs prevented posting any pictures or much in the way of info about him until the adoption was complete .... he got off to a rough start in life and is now doing well ....

That's great, Jim. That young lad will never forget that fish either.

Re: Introduction
Good job Jim. Little kids need family.
I adopted one, fostered one, got one in marriage, and have two of my own.
They need roots and then they need wings.
