I knew that someday it would happen; but it came and happened so fast that I’m still trying to come to grips with it…My sister Mary and nephew Cole are moving from Grande Prairie today. They are moving closer to our home town and to our Mom. Mary got a great job there, Cole has awesome opportunities in terms of aids and care, and they will have more support in that area.
When you get to the brass balls of it, Mary and I didn’t spend much time together. We are both very busy with our work, family and personal commitments that we never had time. We used to have family suppers ever Sunday night…I don’t know why that stopped. All I’m saying I guess is that even though we didn’t spend much time together there was a certain sense of security knowing that a close family member was near.
Randy, Ethan and I are now all alone up here in now…it is kind of weird. It’s not like we’ve never been away from family before but we’ve never lived in Grande Prairie by ourselves before. It will be weird that is for sure. I had me a good cry last night after they left!
Regardless of my sadness I am so happy for their fresh start. The opportunities on this road they are on are wonderful ones for them. Such a positive change for them and we are proud that they are brave enough to make the change. Best of luck and safe travels, Mary & Cole!
