Last week was a weird time for me and my family. Like a lot of people, we have not seen any of our extended family in about two years since covid became a thing. It was refreshing to see my cousins who have grown up so much in just two years. I do not think anyone in my family realized since we were all just happy to see one another in person again but Thanksgiving was no the same with my last grandparent dying this past May. We had a changing of the old guard with my uncle on my dad’s side become to oldest person in our immediate family. Which for me is scary. It makes you realize how fast time is actually moving. Saying all this last week was one of the best Thanksgiving I think I have ever had. It has something to do with the fact that I have not had a family gathering for Thanksgiving or Christmas in two years. I had forgotten what being around family for a full day can do to you.
