We had a great day with Rob and his family. We walked around downtown Greenville and had lunch, then went to the pool (brrrr… but Bobby had so much fun swimming back and forth across the entire length of the pool for close to an hour), played with bubbles, had dinner, played Hungry Hungry Hippos, and called it a night. There was a moment at the pool where everyone (well, almost everyone) was in the water playing and I thought about how much Mom would have loved to be there. This, I think, was her dream, and I so regret that we couldn’t make it happen for her. But… I’m glad we made the dream happen anyway, even if she wasn’t here to enjoy it, because it HAS been special. And honestly it has taken too long to make it happen. It’s time to do better.
