Somber start to the week....

My family is infamous for calling after 9pm ANY NIGHT of the week..so we’ve slowly eased our way out of the initial “emergency call” thought and take late night calls in stride—most of the time…It has even become some sort of a joke so to speak…the phone rings..I say the repetitive..who could be calling us so late…and hubby says..who ALWAYS calls us late? Then we both know instantly it’s my family…until last night.

We were watching We are Marshall relaxing on the couch when the phone rings…my sister (who is spending the night) brings the phone to me and tells me its coming up on the caller ID as Mr.Awesome’s aunt….well..okay she is supposed to watch BA1 on Wednesday so maybe she is calling to tell me she can’t. That’s my initial thought, but then it’s quickly disposed of since it’s almost 10pm on SUNDAY why would she be calling to tell me this now.

Within seconds the idea of late night phone calls being typical and normal becomes non-existant. Mr. Awesome’s stepdad’s father had a massive heart attack and passed away a little while ago. Complete and utter shock I think took over right away since we seriously JUST SAW THEM….It is so sad to think of someone leaving their loved ones so quickly. No chance to say their goodbyes..nothing. Please keep their family in your prayers.

I think it’s safe to say late night phone calls will have a new meaning to us now for awhile at least!

Hope everyone else’s week started off great!
