I mentioned in a previous post that my Aunt (Diane) hadn't seen my brother in 12 years. Well I have another Aunt (Moe) (sisters) who is Mentally Challenged and Aunt Diane is her guardian since my Grandfather passed. Anyway, she too (obviously) hadn't seen my brother in 12 years. Now my Aunt M doesn't smile much, interact much with people since my Grandfather died. While we were at lunch my Aunt D said to me that she thought it would be a good idea to bring my brother to the house so Aunt M could see him, and asked what I thought (she had been debating on bringing hiim back to her house or not). I told her I thought it would at least bring a smile to Aunt M's face. She agreed, so when we finished we went back to Aunt D's house (Aunt M actually lives in the house right next to Aunt D, it was my Grandfather's house). We went next door, letting my brother walk in first and all we hear outside it a loud scream (good) and crying (yea, like you hear in those long lost reunion shows) and we walk in and Aunt M actually jumped UP on my brother, wrapped her legs around him and was the happiest we've ever seen her in a LONG time. She look at my brother rubbing his face and said how she hadn't seen him in a "forever". She wouldn't let go of him, it really was the sweetest thing ever. I told him he's lucky because I never even get that reaction out of her, even when I saw her for the first time in a long time, all I get is a 'Hi Sheri-Ann",
Never did we expect that reaction, nor did we expect to have tears brought to our eyes when we walked through the door. I wish I had my camera on.
