Family Business

It feels so good to be home. I get to see my mom's side of the family today and then my dad's side tomorrow.

I got back yesterday afternoon and the first thing I did was visit my grandpa. It felt so weird. I couldn't help but tear up. Damn I'm tearing up just typing this out. The day of his funeral was seriously the saddest day of my life. I had never cried like that before. It felt like my heart was in a million pieces that day.

I had gotten it partially for him, but actually seeing the character of our last name on his tombstone just gave it that much more meaning. Tomorrow would have been his 90th birthday.
