I am starting to collect family stories in a more orderly and formal fashion. I have heard many of them before. As a child, they both fascinated and bored me to tears when all I wanted to do was go play outside or hang out with my friends.
Now those stories enthrall me and make me realize how much about my parents I don't know or didn't consider was important. I am honestly in awe of half of what they have done. This past week I had the incredible pleasure of sitting down with them and hearing the stories, spending time with them and my mom's extended family.
I am so blessed.
