i never thought i'd see this day EVER.. my dad and i haven't had the best of relationship. if my grandmother (dad's mom) didn't pull the i am old card and ask me to ask my father to walk me down the aisle i never would have asked him to walk me. but around M's bday i started to notice a change.. i guess the universe had a shift and it affected him big time. He called on M's bday to wish him a happy bday. i know a grandpa calling his grandson to wish him a happy bday shouldn't be a big deal. but my dad has never called me to wish me a happy bday since my parents divorced. so yes it is a very big positive move on his part. then after that he'd make attempts. maybe even before that the change started. anyways he called to have the families over to celebrate M's and the T2s bdays. and asked us to come over for dinner every so often. when we do come he doesn't invite his church friends... just us which is really nice because we all actually talk. dad even stays at the dinner table after he finishes his dinner to chat with everyone. it's nice to know that M has his 'ojichan' and i am starting to feel like i have a father. i know our relationship is mending and i know it takes time. but as long as i see he is trying i will try too. and the nice thing is that he is getting to know his grandchildren.
he can be so nice and giving at times. i just hope it lasts and that we can all just get along and get to know each other. but for now i am enjoying every minute because this doesn't ever happen.
