This is my first summer living away from home and the experience made me realize how blessed I am to have such a great family who supports my big dreams. Living on my own has taught me how to be independant, but also brings to my attention all those little things I have become accustomed to that I take for granted when I am home. The big trees, the backroads, the street signs. My mom and I sitting in our kitchen talking about everything and anything. My dad waking up far too early roaming around downstairs. Even my brother, coming and going with the social tides and music fests.
Not much has changed, and yet everything has changed. The house is full of so many knick knacks from Grandpa, all of which is taking about a century to sort through. My dad is now the ring leader of his own family circus ever since grandpa passed away, so this father's day in particular is the most difficult he as an individual has experienced.
All and all, It's great to catch up with family and friends.
