About 9:30 Eastern time, I get a phone call from my brother stating that he is sitting talking to Dad about the new house. Aren’t reconciliations wonderful. I dont know how to explain how I feel right now, my heart is about to pop out of my chest, it so full and ready to burst out to the world. I knew this day was coming, I didn’t know when or how, but it was coming. I never expected to be this excited about what has happened. I didn’t hear everything that was said but I am very proud of them. I am sure that this has been one of the hardest times in both their lives and finally they can start the family life back up. I don’t know what else to think. There will be more to clebrate than just Vandermeer’s birthday tonight, I tell you that much.
