Monday, March 15 (Day 4): My wife and I are blessed to have many wonderful relatives on both sides of the family. Two who hold a special place in our hearts are my Aunt Edie and Uncle Tom. Over the years we have grown very close to them. They have always been there for our family whenever and wherever needed. They have been such a Godsend since my father passed away a little more than a year ago and especially since my mother broke her leg this past September. We simply could not have managed through either event without their support and love. My son Matthew adores them. They come to many of his numerous sporting events and I think they have been to all of his school programs. In fact they are going to Grandparent's Day at Matthew's school on Tuesday morning. Matthew is sooo excited. Matthew still talks about the time that Uncle Tom took us fishing last summer, in part b/c Matthew was the only one to catch any fish that morning!! If it is possible for a 6 year old to gloat, Matthew has figured out how to do it. I decided as my gift for today that I would send them a card and tell them how much we love them, how important they are to us and how blessed we are to have them as such a special part of our lives. They are much more than relatives to us, they are dear friends.
