Today Joe and I decided to go out to the stadium near my parents home to watch two local high schools play some school soccer. My parents live on the opposite side of town so it takes about 30 minutes to get from our house to theirs when the traffic is bad. Needless to say, during the course of our busy week, we rarely make it out to visit. I know...that sounds terrible...but life sometimes gets in the way and unless we make time for a visit...it just doesn't happen. Thank goodness I have the parents I do! They make time for us without hesitation! My mother routinely packs my dad up and brings him over to our house for family dinners, soccer games, open houses, recitals, etc. etc. etc. Have I mentioned that my mom is truly a Saint! Anyone who knows her will agree.
After the game, Joe and I stopped by my parents house to say hello and I took the time to introduce my dad to his blog. I invited him to our first lunch date scheduled for this Friday. I'm not sure where we are going yet...I told him to think about it and let me know. He seemed pretty tickled about the idea of lunch with his girl and I'm looking forward to conversation and time with my dad.
