I'm thankful for my family. Last night we all went out to dinner to celebrate my eldest son's 40th birthday. The whole family showed up 15 people in all, even though the weather was bad and stormy.
The boys father came with his wife, hasn't his sons and grandchildren in years. He went round hugging them all and commented on how they had changed including the grandchildren. The youngest grandchild is now almost ten.
The boys don't have much to do with their father because of all the abuse he heaped on them in their childhood. It goes to show that letting go is better for them. Even though they will never forget and getting an apology from him isn't likly to happen. The evening went well and you could see that he was grateful that he was invited, and a little teary eyed.
What can I say! That's life and you have to move on the best you can, without letting the past consume you. It's just too damn short.
