Tom and TJ

So, Tom is on his way from TN up to PA where he can then go up to NY for court. He is going on Friday to hopefully finalize custody of keeping TJ with us. He is more stable, less moody, and definitely doing better in school. Tom and I have really been hoping to get full custody of TJ someday, however we were shocked when they started the proceedings and everything. They don't seem to really care about his feeling otherwise they would call more or something. When we told TJ about how we were making things legal and he would live with us until further notice, he actually took it pretty well. We had been having problems with him not bringing stuff home from school. Since that night we all 3 talked, TJ has brought home all his work (to our knowledge), brought home a Science test he took and got an A on and also took 2 AR reading tests and got 100% on both of them. His attitude has improved in alot of ways (minus the typical attitude) and he is making friends. I find him more out with his friends after school than just sitting around doing nothing. Im hoping that we can keep him going on the straight path and make him realize that he matters to someone. We love him sooo much and are so happy he is here with us!
