Thank you everyone for your kind words.
my ex's extended family still make me feel like a part of the family when I see them (I live in a different town) and I am always welcomed with open arms. I got to say my goodbye and let him know he was my favourite
.
Graduation was wonderful, my boys looking all dapper and one even earned honours
. I say boys as the job I do I work mainly with boys. Got my hugs and promises that they will see me around and come back to visit. Graduation is always a happy and sad night for me. I have four years invested in these kids, having seen them at their best and their worst. I feel so lucky to be able to invest the time with them and watch them grow.
