    Weekend visit

    October 28th, 2006 by dlau

    For those who knew lester since childhood, I encourage you to compare the photos in the previous post.  One day I’ll figure out how to implement a polling feature.

    We’re starting to get around a bit more these days.  e’s sleep/eat patterns are predictable, so we usually time our trips that way.  Sunday was a nice day, so we went out to N Van, and back to Costco/Safeway in Burnaby.  On the way back, we stopped by Forest Lawn to visit our Grandmothers and Goo Bak. 

    I can’t describe how it was to introduce my daughter to her great-grandmothers, and great-great grandaunt.  Somehow I felt that introductions weren’t really needed… that in some way, our grandmothers live on through her.  Kinda like the Disney movie Mulan where all the family Ancestors know their decendants and look out for them.  :)

    But there was a tinge of sadness in that we know how beyond happy they would have been to meet her and hold her.  Imagine, seeing 4 generations of your family!   

    As e grows older, one day we will begin to tell her stories about her great-grandmothers and the rest of the family.  One thing for sure, she’s got quite the heritage.  :)
