A New Way to Include

What happens when your father and grandfather cannot make it to the wedding? I wrestled with this question during the weeks leading up to the wedding. Inwardly, I hoped that he would suddenly appear with my brother, but it was not the case.

Instead, we drove up to Waterford to share the dance with my father and the residents. Cookies and sparkling grape juice were added to the festivities. The residents watched with smiles and joy. It was a precious event.
