Found out that an old friend is getting married. He is old in friendship, not age. My parents and his were close friends and I remember their warmth and love for kids really well. They passed away, way before their time in a train accident near home, leaving a little son behind. He was the apple of their eye, born over a decade after they got married. It was so horrible to see it happen....this little kid was so small and seems to have grown up well.
His family stepped in and it warmed my heart to hear staff at their hotel describe him as the Director's son. Whichever person was being refered to as the Director, he was their son....by birth or upbringing.
Called and spoke to him and was thrilled to find that he remembered us. He has always been in our hearts and prayers and that little boy is getting married this weekend. So happy.....not totally sure why, since we have not met in years and years.
I need to take the kids home to see my childhood haunts. My school, our homes, my teachers.....while they are still around. Bouncy steps this morning! :-D
