WOW! 25 years ago my grandma put a time capsule down for me, and I finally received it. She didn't do this for the other grandkids, just me! As think about it, so many emotions and memory come rushing back again. I so miss my grandma (sniffle... sniffle). It's only been a year since her passing...
The time capsule consisted of a number of photos, some poems by my step-grandpa, a few word history, and some Canadian Centennial currency (the year of my birth). Unfortunately, the time capsule got wet, the paper damaged, the coins corroded... but it was the thought, and she thought of me.
What is funny, is that my current girlfriend has a few of her mannerisms, and that helps bring random smiles to my face. My girl friend will be perplexed with me, as I will randomly start laughing, and I can't help it, as I see a little of my grandparents in what ever just happened.
I'm gonna transcribe my step-grandpa's poems and stories into my blog so that they may bring some joy to others. They were deemed important enough for my grandma to pass them on, so I will deem them important enough to share to everyone else....
Thank you grandma for being you and loving me.....
More Later....
