78 days


In just 78 days my baby boy will be getting married...at this time I cannot help but to think about my parents...my mom and dad (especially my mom) thought the world revolved around Justin. I have a sister who is 15 years older than me and the youngest grandchild at the time Justin was born was 15 years old and when the other grandkids were young I was also so my mom was raising kids and had grandchildren and did not get to enjoy the others being babies. My parents were excellent grandparents-when we lived in Tennessee they would come to visit for a week and stay at a hotel and keep Justin with them and take him to all the sites. He would spend a week with them at christmas and at spring break and also for a few weeks in the summer. When we lived in Cincinnati they would make the almost 4 hour drive down to watch him run cross country and track and would also drive to other parts of the state to watch him run. I am glad that they were able to meet Justin's fiance' Jill before they died. When my mom was dying she said she hoped they would get married so as the weddign date is approaching I cannot help but think of them.
