I post this only because you discussed family ... something that is truly dear to me.April 1st always reminds me of something that happened on this day many years ago.
I was at my little sister's wedding that happened down in the Sarasota area. The ceremony had not started yet and I was talking to my stressed out Mom. I was looking at the wedding program and that's when I realized that my sis was going to have an April 1st anniversary date. I said that to my Mom.
My Mom looked at me with this stern look in her eyes and said -"That's perfect, because this wedding is a joke". That is when I learned that my Mom was not a fan of the groom.
They did have 2 wonderful sons together, but they got divorced when the boys were still very young. My Mom reminded me of what she told me right before their wedding had started when the news broke about them splitting up. A mother's intuition is real.
Today would have been my father's 100th birthday. He was a great guy. I got lucky.
