Our holidays in NC were absolutely magical. Beginning with the drive around the rock slide at the TN/NC border. Scenery of my childhood flickering in and out. Long, cold mountain roads dominating the presence. My mom's surprisal of our arrival. My grandchildren leaping into our arms. Beauty found in my great nephews in their curiosity and laughter and astonishment in this world. Memories of my eldest son playing basketball as we sat in the same gym where he played - where my son now coaches his son. Bonding of my sister and I as gifts are exchanged. Love shining between my mom and her boyfriend as we visited him in the nursing home. Warmth of family ~ been a long time even though it is always felt at a distance, the actual hugging and touching somehow radiates deeper than one can imagine.
Now we are home again filled with continuation of love.
