Almost Thanksgiving

I hadn't gone back and reread all the early posts from those scary days before today. It seems almost unbelievable that I am that same person and those things happened to my family. Something has changed in the dynamic of how we all relate to each other, and it is so much better now than it was before. Even Brian and I are more understanding of each other, which is wonderful! Sky's caseworker seems more involved and communicative, Skyler is slowly allowing us into his life, and we are all cautiously moving forward very very slowly. I am glad that I am not where I was 8 months ago when he left our house, because I have enjoyed the weekend visits, and Liam loves getting to see his brother. I still wish things hadn't gotten screwed up with the Austin center, but the Ranch is a really great place too, even if it does mean 5+ hours in the car for 45 minutes of therapy, I think it's working. I have a tour at work, maybe I will write more later.
