My mother-in-law (Jan's mom) passed away. The flood of emotions that have followed isn't something that I thought would hit me so hard. Jan was distant from her parents during the last few years of her life. There were hurt feelings on both sides. This was very unfortunate but the argument affected not only Jan but me. It affected my relationship with her parents. I love them dearly. Time may not heal all wounds but I believe in Christ and believe he can. Her funeral is in a few days. I regret not being in more contact during the last few years of her life. Regrets seem to be a common theme at funerals. I suppose this one is no different. She and her husband were private people and yet I felt accepted by them. I miss them both. I wish I could have a conversation with both of them. I suppose in time I will. So - the funeral is on my mind. I will see family I haven't seen in years. Funerals and weddings seem to be the place for family reunions.
