Lost and Found (Part 2)

Well it’s done. I just pressed send on the hardest email of my life to date. Yup, the email to my aunt telling her to pass on my email address to my Dad.
My Mum is talking to my Dad for the first time in more than 30 years. And she seems happy about it. My Dad is apparently as scared of talking to me as I am of taking to him 
I really have no idea what to expect. I was thinking about it on the walk to work, I started crying. They were happy tears, as I imagined saying “hello Dad” for the first time to my real father.
It’s not really something I’ve ever really thought I’d ever do. Just like I never thought I’d have relatives that cared about me.
I grew up knowing that the only member of my family that loved me was my Mum. I could never understand why people put so much stock in family. Now I’m beginning to understand it. And it fills my heart with love for people I was too young to remember, but who remembers and love me.
Well more after I hear from my Dad.
Peace
