Mom has wanted to go see her sister for months, afraid that my aunt would die before she got to see her one more time. My dad can't drive that far with his back problems, so my sister had the idea for the girl's weekend.
We left on Saturday afternoon and came back Sunday afternoon. We had a really good time visiting with each other, my aunt, and my cousins. And it was better than watching BYU get stopped by Florida State on Saturday night!
The experience did remind me of the circle of life. You just never know what is going to happen before you finish your time on earth. Enduring to the end has new meaning the older you get. I've often wondered who will take care of me when I am old and grey. I better keep being the favorite aunt and maybe one of them will take pity on me.
