Life moves on in mysterious ways.My Blog entry for September 21, 2009-
"It's a special day for me. I meet a part of my life that I've never seen. She's a part of my past, a part of my 'today' and surely part of my future. Nine years ago, my brother and sisters learned we had a half-sister. Simply put-- today, we'll all be together at last. I'm excited!"
It was a wonderful evening. I spent most of the night just staring at Diane. I also met her middle daughter, Julie. Today, Diane returns. This time she'll be accompanied by her oldest daughter, Elizabeth. Comparatively speaking, my side of the family is quite small, so my son J- is really excited to meet another new cousin. We just never know where the next turn in this life will take us. I thought I knew who I was... I just didn't know all the pieces of my puzzle weren't on the table yet.
Adorable post.Glad that your heart is smiling.I imagine the last year you all had a fabulous family meeting, it's really a blessing.
ReplyDeleteWe all need these pearls of positivism and lights in our lives!

Have a nice week

I'm sure that it'll be a wonderful time. You're lucky to have her, and she's lucky to have your family!
ReplyDeleteLife sure is full of surprises!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I, too, have a small family and would love to learn of another relative! Glad this is such a happy ending.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, thank you for visiting GDP lately. Love your comments. However, when I click on 'birdman,' the link to port daily photo does not connect. Makes it harder to comment back. I had to remember you were port city daily photo and google you.
Beautiful post, Birdman.
ReplyDeleteNice photo for today's entry. You never know which way life will take you.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lifelong journey. How wonderful for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you got to meet another member of your family and hope you have another wonderful visit! I love the photo, by the way.
ReplyDeleteA very poignant post, Birdman. Glad that you have welcomed the newest discovery into your heart and life.
ReplyDeleteYou have done some nice work while I was away.
Eerie. This morning, revising a ms. in progress, I re-read a very similar passage about a girl being w/out all the pieces to know who she is. Love your post and your photo.
ReplyDeleteI am impressed by the image and by the perfect title. The post is even better...
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post. How nice to find out about your half-sister. You are right...life is full of surprises.
ReplyDeleteA lovely story full of warmth and told with love. Thank you so much for sharing this, I am glad that this is a happy occasion for you all. May there be many more days like the one you described.

ReplyDeleteThat is a great story, and somehow the swept grasses fits the theme..within the chaos there is some innate order (?)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to DonZ Baby,
