My dad was in town this weekend from D.C. & I must say, after 2 1/2 years of not seeing or even talking to eachother until the last few months..it feels good. Its like everything is right with the world. He came to our house to pay a visit to my mom & it brought her to tears...which of course, brought me to tears. Looking back at the relationship they used to have when my siblings & I were growing up then seeing it turn ugly for a few years after the divorce had been finalized & seeing them now...well, I have no words to describe it but i know one thing -- it most definitely brings me peace. I always knew my dad & I would reconcile our differences & restore the relationship we used to have..but seeing BOTH of my parents together in one room...and NOT yelling at eachother? Well, its pretty awesome. I guess the only thing that sucks about it is that we never really know where their relationship would be if I didn't get pregnant & my mom didn't get diagnosed with cancer. Nonetheless, the past is in the past and we are all here now & I, for one, cannot complain. It feels good.
It was a long, rough road that got us all here but I'm thankful & happy that we are, FINALLY....here.
