I have not been good about updating, because life has been busy (and my journal is HARD to update from the phone, vs. Twitter and Facebook). I have let Ian's 6-month appointment pass unmarked here.
I made the time to get to the computer tonight, though.
Today, my father-in-law passed away, suddenly and unexpectedly. We will very, very much miss him.
It took me time to get used to him, because we came from such different backgrounds, but it was time well spent. My father-in-law was a wonderful, loving, funny man. He enjoyed creating things (spice mixes, paintings, jewelry and other things with polished rocks, custom cards for special occasions, cooking...). He loved his family, including his children and grandchildren. He was a photographer, and a funny, kind, caring man.
The world is a little dimmer without him in it.
I hope that Drew, at least, will be able to remember his Grandpa, who loved him, and enjoyed offering him cookies and playing knock-in-the-water (Wii sports resort fencing, where you knock your opponent off a platform into the water) with him.
I wish he could have stayed, and seen them grow up, and spent more time with all of us. We will miss him so very much.
