Special Evening

The Darlin's and I trekked over to Firecop's house this evening. We spent quite a long time cleaning out Gramma's stuff. We found, no lie, 19 pair of black pants. Gramma just kept insisting she didn't have any black pants. Every few months or so, we'd head over to the store and buy yet another pair of black slacks! What I think has happened was her closet was so dark she just couldn't see the pants! And I did go through her closet and arrange things, but I know that old woman would come in right behind me re-arrange the closet!!!
Gramma's room is now cleaned out and we have our "treasures." Later, Firecop and sat outside and chatted. We will be having these talks for some time to come, I believe...lots to resolve. The conversation turned to him going back to Colorado. He really feels like his place is here. I know my cousin misses her Daddy and would love for him to be nearer to her. I told him that she can't have him back!!! (I mean this quite lovingly and not meanly!)
I want him to stay, but the choice is his and God's. Firecop knows I will always be supportive of the choices he needs to make and I will stand by his side, no matter what! I just love my Uncle!
