No More "Little" Brother

Some of you might be wondering why I haven't posted much about my "little" brother in recent months... well there have been some complications. He has had some anxiety and seperation issues with his mother. We tried to make the visits shorter, three hours is manditory but we cut them down to a little over an hour and we thought it was working. But the past few visits have been cancelled with Nico saying he is sick or not feeling well so his mother and I talked along with the Big Brother sponser and decided that he might be a bit young to be in the program and will have to be taken out for the time being.

So this is two "littles" in one year. I think I'm going to take a break from being a Big Brother for a while. It's tough to get to know a "little" and start to enjoy the time spent together then something comes up and you "lose" them. Both of these happend about four months into the program, and at that point you really start to get emotional attached and then they are gone... it's tough. I think I might wait till this current job is over before starting the program again.
