  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Prayers Needed!

Sorry to hear that Larry... Sent one up for ya... I hate to hear about stuff like this. Glad to hear you've opened up your home, & are going to give them the love they need. That'll go a long way in healing them...

Good on you Larry! I guess now you won't be the beer tasting machine that you once were. We'll all lift one up in your honor though!

Agree with everything everyone has said so far, really a great move on your part to take both of them in. I'm sure both children will be far better off from now on. Honestly, no child deserves that.

That being said, do you mind sharing a little more? I'm wondering where your son and the ex daughter in law are in all of this?

Larry, I am so sorry to hear this. You are their rock and we will be praying for you. You have done the most important thing in their life and they will never forget it. Props to you sir.

So sorry to hear about this Larry. I'm so thankful the kids are safe now and with you. Prayers sent... Remember, when that SOB is caught and put in jail, child molesters get what's coming to them in prison. You take care of those kids. Let the prison take care of that sick bastard.

The kids will need you vastly more than the SOB who committed this horrendous act. Don't even give him the gift of thinking of his name. I'm new around here, and I don't even know you, but you're a hell of a guy for stepping up in such a huge way. Family IS the most important thing out there, and you've proved it here.

Thinking of you and the kids right now and for a long time to come. Spoil them with love. That's what's important and that's what they need.

It's tragic that these children had to go through what they did but at least they will now be going to a loving family. They are very lucky to have people like you and your wife to take care of them. A very great thing you are doing!!
