Today is a bittersweet day for me.
Many of you know that today would have been mine and Rory's 21rst anniversary. This is the bitter part. I miss him terribly. And days like today remind me of our life together. And what could have been only if... I beat myself up with the only if's... So, I wasn't really in a great mood today.
But then, here comes the sweet part... my daughter called me. And she let me know that I AM GOING TO BE A GRANDMA! Yep, Diana is pregnant! Call it odd, but when she called me the other day and was sick, that was the first thought I had. But I didn't ask her (not sure she knew for sure at that time). But she lit me up with that congratulation! I am not sure, hon, if you know how you turned what was going to be a difficult day for me (probably for the rest of my life) into a very, very positive thing.
I am so happy for Diana and Jon! Congratulations you two!
