Super excited!

[Big-John]

As some form alinboard may know my little brother has been in the federal pin for 6 years and is now in a half way house. I am finally gonna get to go see him next weekend and spend a few days with him. My youngest duaghter has only seen pics of him and I now have a 6 month old son. So I cant wait for them all to meet. My oldest daughter remembers him well and talks about him all the time. :headbang:

I'm happy for you, Big John. I hope you guys have a good visit..I am sure you will...

 

[Big-John]

Wow, that sounds exciting. Im super close to my brother. I cant imagine. Hes going to need your support, im sure.

He is still having a hard time adjusting to being out. He gets out on the weekends but has to stay and live in TN for 2 years.. He has already come a long way from 3 months ago when he first got to the half way house but he is still not back to his self. I think the more he is around good friends and family the better and faster he will adjust. He already has a job and is working 5 days a week to so that is a big plus.

He's lucky to have you there and all the good support you are giving him. Sounds like things are on the right track and good things will happen for him.

Im happy for you bro! Family means everything to me! I couldn't imagine what it was like but im glad everything is coming together for your brother and you!

That is great news! Enjoy the time you get to spend with him. Nothing like a reunion after years of being apart.

 

[Big-John]

Better late than never! Finally got down to see my brother! He is only on house arrest until next month.. He got to meet my youngest daughter for the first time and my son for the first time and it was great. My oldest daughter ran to his arms and was telling him she loved and missed him and this grown man might have cried a little. But here are a few pics I will leave up for a day or so..
