This weekend was packed with family time. It started off with Kung Fu family time. I had initially declined this as our nephew’s wedding was also on this day. I didn’t believe the timing would work to be fully involved in one and not be late for the other. My husband of course disagreed, and I’m glad he did. It was a great time, and congrats to all three teams on another fantastic performance. It was heartwarming to do this performance at the care facility. I have lived firsthand with the disease these people are living with, and I know how much something like this positively affects them all, and the caregivers taking care of them. Close to my heart, and grateful to be a part of it. We also made it to the wedding with time to spare, and it was a beautiful rest of the day.
Today was spent with an uncle I haven’t seen in 30 years, and precious to that visit it had been more than 10 years. So needless to say, this is a family member I had only spent any time with before I was age 10. My extended family has a storied history, much of which I learned a lot about today. I was fortunate enough to be sheltered by almost all of it from my parents, but there is always a lot of wonder about bits and pieces I have heard. It was so refreshing to connect, learn about family, and have some things explained. He, like my parents separated himself from the family, and has lived a full, successful life. We ended up connected again by a picture a second cousin posted on her Facebook page, and he for some reason came across the picture on his wife’s fb. The wonder of the internet…. Anyway, it was definitely a full, heartwarming weekend, and the start of a reconnection that I definitely look forward to watching grow.
