The week has come and past which means one thing, summer break is 8 weeks away!!!!!!!! Can you believe it? I can't wait. But I will say this past week was a little difficult. Driving up to my grandpaws and not having Sandra there was a little awkward. Driving up at my parent’s house, seeing the chairs set up in Paw Paw's backyard made me think how his chair will be empty this summer, which brought me to tears. And I really started to think about Maw Maw and Paw Paws house. It’s the same house. The exterior looks the same, the inside looks the same (except cleaner!), and the same chairs in the same spot. But everything is different. The entire atmosphere is different. Which I think goes to prove it's not the physical things that join us together. It's the people and relationships we have in our lives.
On a lighter note, I was over at maw maw's when my aunts were cleaning out the closets and let me tell you... i have never in my life seen so many pairs of new socks in plastic packages. Not even the Wal-Mart shelves have this many socks. It was hilarious!! And Shirts… Holy Moly… At least 25 dress shirts still in the plastic wrap or gift box. Never opened. All of these things were gifts people gave him he never used. I even remember as a kid seeing him open presents on Father's Day, Christmas, and His birthday and his response being... I don't need this. Well, he didn't. But the question is... what to do with all the White Tube socks?
