Day 1

I am writing this post at one in the morning and the house is half alive. We are at my family reunion and this is what it is all about!! Food, jokes, old stories, laughter, sarcasm, home movies, running, chasing, games, ping pong, dodgeball, sleeping absolutely anywhere, red cups with names on them, hugs, sweat, fans, pizza, catching up, family prayer, getting reacquainted and just a whole lot of craziness. Someone said, “What family stays up half the night doing this?” I said, don’t ever compare our family to anyone else’s. This is Day 1. I had better get to sleep because Day 2 has already arrived.
