Today started out with a glorious cup of coffee and a LOT of housework to be done. Man, if I don't keep up on even a little bit of it....it creeps up on me.
This is just a peep of what I had to deal with.
And Piper had her first tumbling class of the school year. Sam will be in her class once her leg is healed. Pip was happy to be back with her friends!
But on to the point: Today started out with a glorious cup of coffee and then I remembered what day it was.
Ten years ago, my papa passed away. It feels like such a long time since I last heard his voice or sang next to him at church. My papa was my favorite. He was my dad when I didn't have one around. My papa and grandma would take my sister and I during the summer when my mom worked; we did everything with them. We had all sorts of road trips, laughs, we did a lot of stuff together. My papa and I would paint together and listen to his favorite tribal music.
Anyways, it would just hit me periodically and I'd have a little cry. Ten years feels so long, but I know that where he is, it's been like the blink of an eye. I know one day I will see him again. That was part of the joy I'd feel after the sadness!
So today, it really was a good day, despite the tears. I have so many good memories of my papa and the love I felt for him is still alive in my heart! He will always be a part of me.
