Mother's Day

Mother's Day this year was a little strange but a good strange.  I woke up yesterday morning wanting to call my mom but I couldn't since my parents are currently away on a European trip.  I've Skyped with them a few times since they have been away but as of yesterday morning it had been a week since I had last spoken to them.  I decided to fill my morning with phone calls to family and friends to wish them a "Happy Mother's Day."  As I called my god-mother, Janet she informed me that she was at the hospital with my grandpa.  After hearing the news, I finished my calls and headed to the hospital.  I guess my whole family had the same idea because before I knew it my grandpa's room was filled with people.  It felt like it was a family reunion.



As I sat there with my grandpa my phone started buzzing.  I couldn't believe it..... it was my mother "skyping/calling" from Barcelona.  She had no idea that her dad was in the hospital. I was so SHOCKED and her timing was impeccable.  She was able to see/talk to my grandpa and the whole family. I was so happy to hear from her!  I've missed talking to her everyday and ready for her to return home.  As for my grandpa, he appears to be doing fine and hope he gets out of the hospital today.  He was in GREAT spirits yesterday with all his love ones around.


I missed my mom yesterday but I was able to spend the day with my family. Unexplained blessings.
