Saying Goodbye

I haven't seen my nephew Erik in six years. Now it was time to say goodbye to the strapping 34 yr-old and his Dad...and the rest of the clan.

It was great to see my three brothers and their families. But it was even more wonderful and rewarding to see the joy in my mother's eyes. That she could bear witness to the gathering of her sons, their wives (whom she thinks of as daughters) and her three grandchildren was a wish come true.
