Saw my little sister and grandparents for the first time in five years · 4:51pm Dec 18th, 2020
So...I went in my new car to go and see my baby sister and my grandad and grandma whom I haven't seen for five years. Last time I saw her, she was only a year old! It felt strange seeing her after all this time, but it's good to know she's doing good and she's grown up so much! For her age, like the rest of us at that stage, she's tall!
I didn't really know what to say to her. I went because I had a Christmas card I wanted to give to her. My auntie was at work and wouldn't get back until late, so I had to miss the opportunity to say hello again. It wasn't the same without my brother there. Last time, it was all three of us there together, so with it being just me there it felt strange. Nice, but strange. That feeling you get when you know a part of the moment is missing.
It felt nice to see them all again after all that time had passed. I wondered if she'd even remember me at all, didn't really get much of an answer on that one. I was hoping my auntie would have been there, which is the main reason I went there in the first place, but guess it'll have to wait until another time. I was only glad I could see my little sister again. Scary to me how much she does the majority of the same things I used to do at her age. Still, we'll only have a definite answer if she's exactly like me once she gets a little older!
Nothing will be the same once we all get older, and it makes me wonder if we'll even see each other much at all. I hope we will, wouldn't be a good brother if I stayed out of her life, would I? I hope she stays on a good path in her life, too. I'll watch over her all the way. Wish my second dad-figure was still around to see her, he would have loved her so much. Great Grandma would have loved her, too. She never got to see her.
Christmas isn't the same when all your family, or the ones you talked with most in said family, aren't around any more. I only wish that things could have worked out differently.
Merry Christmas, Brethren.
