I MET HIS FAMILY

I saw RC guy again last night. I can't help but feel so much at ease with him around. We picked up the gorgeous 86 yesterday and the stares we received on the way back to Geelong...my goodness I can't even begin to explain how much it feels like we're loaded with wads of cash in the boot. The ride was smooth and he seems to be over joyed by his purchase. On the other hand  I was more keen and nervous to meet his family. 

I haven't met a family whom have been so welcoming to me before. I am envious of their closeness...sometimes I look at other people's families and I want to crawl up into a ball and sob. I've always grown up in a family whom were distant...mainly because I am the only girl. I never had a soul to speak to and my mother isn't much of a best friend for me. To meet RC's parents was such a blessing, I met the people who raised a young man who had set goals in his life and knew what he really wanted. It was different and of course the good kind of different. 

They asked me how we met and his mama was just going on and on about how it was fate. I can see where he gets all his wise and cheesy speeches from. His mother is so loving and her heart is so warm, I could already feel her relentless blessings from the minute I walked in. Both of his parents were quite talkative and seemed happy to meet me. RC tells me that they're glad he's seeing someone of his own heritage, it just makes it easier to communicate despite the generation gap. His siblings seemed happy for him and I absolutely adore his younger sister. I guess these are the people that I may end up getting to know a whole lot better and will be seeing them a fair bit. This is something I've always looked forward to.

Geelong is a quiet town, it's not like Melbourne where silence does not exist. It's nice to escape the city for a while. At the top of the hill, you can see the entire town light up. One day I want to be able to stand there and capture the sun rise as each street light switches off and people leave their homes to get ready to start off the day. I've always wondered what it looks like to see the world move by from above.
