36 Years in the Making

 Back in December, my older brother Jimmy called me and said that he may have found our biological father.  He went on to tell me that he was working with an agency that was helping locate our biological father and that they were going to reach out to him to see if he wanted to talk to my brother and I.  I asked my brother if he wanted to know if it was actually him and what he wanted to do with the information if it was.  I told me that he wanted to know if it was him and wanted to get some answers to a lot of questions we both had in regards to our childhood.  A few days to about a week later I received another call from my brother telling me that it was our father and that he did want to communicate with us.   I began to have so many emotions come over me.  The biggest thing was that how was it possible and I am in a dream.  Then the other side of me that looks at everything half empty was like when and where is this other shoe going to drop.  My brother said that he was going to give a call him after the holidays.   That didn't happen,  we both spoke to our dad before the holidays and started to get some answers to many of our questions.  I was also reminded that their is 2 sides to every story and somewhere in the middle is the truth.  Since our dad is in our lives, my biological mother is giving me an even more of a cold shoulder and doesn't want to have anything to do with me our my kids.  I am really trying not let it get to me but it is very difficult.

So right before my dad's birthday, which is June 8, my brother Jimmy and his wife Kathleen came over and we got to meet our dad in person after 36 years of not seeing each other.  He got to meet my husband Jim,  our amazing children and my mother in law.  It was such an amazing time.  I also found out that my brother Jimmy was a set of triplets boys and I had a twin brother.  

So glad he is our lives again ❤.
