Reunion (Sort of)

Two posts in one day....this could be the beginning of something...

Okay, so our family is separated by miles, some more than others. But every now and then we get together. But it had been a LONG while since we had seen Billie, our long lost cousin. I think like anyone would, she had a hard time when her Dad / our uncle passed away. He was a character and I didn't know but sort of the glue. He's missed, deeply. But so was she, I was really glad to see her. Then there's Vicky (it might be "ie", but I can't remember for sure). All grown up and mature. She seemed older than me, not in appearance just maturity. And the many children. Mine, my brother's, and my cousins'. The whole reason we were there I felt was our grandmother who is 92. The matriarch...and the leader... the beginning. We were singing, crying (the kids), playing and creating memories. Enjoy my Mom's side of the family... minus a good many but still a good many. I can't wait til we do it again, with EVERYONE...hint hint.
