I never cease to be amazed
at how many blessingsI seem to be the recipient of,And why I get so
many blessings and others do not .This morning I was contacted by
another brother, my little brother Ed, who lives in Colorado. Ed is
retired from law enforcement, Ed did a lot of forensic work he seems
most interesting individual. I was somewhat pleasantly surprised this
morning to see a text message from him indicating that was excited to
have me part of the family and was looking forward to meeting me. I'm
sure I'll be texting him more as days go by. I was also mildly
surprised at how many texts popped up in my feeds from more family
members expressing surprise, curiosity and overall a welcoming of me
to the family. It sounds like Ed is also been in contact with
Michelle he seems to know her. I will have to visit with Shelley to
find out more. This will be good for Shelley to get and establish an
identity with the family. This family may have more relevance to
Michelle then my other family.
I've also been placed at
the response I've gotten from most of the folks in my adopted family
(it is so weird I am categorizing families). I've only heard from a
few those that typically know how to be on the Internet/ social media
but they are basically pleased for me. After all, nothing has
changed.
I'm certainly glad I have
Antonio and Carla in my corner, I'm glad you have just a stone throws
South of me here in Taylorsville. If those two lived any closer I
could see myself abusing their good intentions and goodness. They are
a genuine couple , a couple who are easily trusted. Carla is the
recordkeeper of the family, if the family were organized enough to
have a recordkeeper. It is by Carla's records that we as a family
shall be known and that is true but not all the way true because
Mother Doobie the character who birthed us was also a recordkeeper of
sorts. She did keep a record of the births. Carla has used a lot of
this data in researching this knot a family, patiently and skillfully
on doing and pulling apart each strand in the not to find soul after
soul who did not even know they were lost. Carla has a folder that
she is scanning and hopefully will send me by email when she can. She
has black and whites of my mother and father which are just
astounding to me. I don't know why all this is that now in my life
and am trying not to be so egocentric that think this is about me.
After all Michelle really push this agenda and I think willed a lot
of this could happen by sheer daughter magic.
I'm still quite taken
aback at the amount of responses that showed up all night Facebook
feed just for the posting of the images from the restaurant
yesterday. So many names I've never heard of but instantly feel
familiar and a bizarre sort of way. I seem to fit at least from the
vantage point where I sit. Seem to be natural in the way things
rollout. I still am going to take baby steps with this project and
see where the steps lead.
