This husband and I…
Drove the streets of the little town where he was born, after visiting the cemetery… Saw the historic school house…hit up the thrift shop…walked through a different cemetery, just in case we’d been searching the wrong one… Read the interesting school house information…was relieved to know an old gal wasn’t crazy in regards to the popularity of the iron-on transfer…and was encouraged wholeheartedly to continue to beat to her own drum… But found no more information on that beautiful, young mother of his… Pondered that at lunch…eating at the same place each year…recognizing the cashier and the waitress from times before…had located that cousin on his dad’s side but nothing for mom… Knew she had a sister, who had a daughter with the same name…did an internet search of the name while munching away on chips and salsa and what to my wondering eyes should I see?… A profile…a social media profile of a familiar face…a familiar face we’d just seen at that very restaurant, standing at the cash register when we walked in… Who just so happened to have left after her shift ended at 2… And so it is…in life…some things will just have to wait…but maybe, just maybe…we are on to something good… And this husband of mine…agrees…
