The day started with thoughts of my grandpa. 17 years ago today, he left this earth and left a hole in my heart. But today was not a day for tears. It was a day to reflect on all the happy moments we shared, the memories we made, and remember all the ways he lives on today. One thought that made me very happy today was a recent conversation that I had with my mom. It was just the other day that I shared with her that my secret dream was to open a bakery. She sort of laughed knowingly, and said that it wasn't the first time she had heard that. Confused, I asked her what she meant by that as I had never told her that I wanted to open a bakery. She told me that my grandpa, her dad, had also wanted to open a bakery of his own. That was just one of the many unexpected ways he makes himself known in my life.
I thought work tonight would be rough with the memories of the day weighing on my mind. Surprisingly, it was a great day! As always, lots of laughter and the night flew by. It was a great way to ease into working the weekend.
