Today is Tuesday, June 8, 2010. I leave to go back to the sweltering heat of Texas' sun and demanding life of non-stop that awaits. So far of all times I've visited Chicago it's been in June. Deceiving though to visit in June. The whether is soo perfect. Just the right amount of sun and wind and even rain. If there could be a perfect souvenir to take back with me, it would be the whether in June. In the winter it's an animal of a different color. The whether isn't so agreeable.
I can honestly say that I am grateful for the trip of seeing my nephew walk across a stage transforming from a child into a man. He graduated among 300 of his peers and was awarded a full athletic scholarship to Michigan for track and field. I am soooo proud of him. I am so proud of my brother and sister-in-law.
I enjoyed my solo trip meeting up with my sister and parents out there. I enjoyed the close knit, one accord and drama free time of sharing with my family but the extended family as well. My sister-in-law's mother and sister came to visit and I hadn't seen either of them in many years. It pleased me that they are just as down to earth now as they were over 10 years ago. I am thankful sometimes that some things don't change.
