Next week, Ethan will get to meet his Grandma Gertrud and Roland for the first time. Their visit has been in the making for some time, and they finally decided to book their trip the other day. Time really does fly past us in mach speed, and I have not seen my mom, Roland or my sisters on that side of the family in probably 5-6 years! The long of the short of the story behind that is just that we don’t talk very often, simple as that. Crazy long time though, and a lot has happened since, so this’ll be a good opportunity to catch up.
I do appreciate that mom and Roland are making the effort to come out here to see us, I do appreciate them wanting to take a step closer to us, and I really do think it is important that Ethan gets a chance to meet all of his grandparents. Funny how something like the birth of a child can bring family closer together, and funny how it sometimes takes just that to get people talking again.
Life is a funny thing, and we have built a great one for ourselves. We may not have a lot of possessions or money in the bank, but we have love. Lots of it. Tons of it, in fact!
Goes without saying; we’ll keep you posted.
What we've got here is
... failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.
So you get what we had here last week,
which is the way he wants it
... well, he gets it.
I don't like it any more than you men.
