Family Secrets
My mother has always been unable to find out when my grandmother's parents were married. Gram has always claimed that she didn't know the date or year. Tonight while she was cleaning out a box, Mom found their marriage certificate. It looks very likely that the reason she wouldn't tell is because my uncle was conceived before the marriage. I know that in today's standards for most people, no big deal but you don't know my grandmother and this was 1920 we're talking. So yeah, very nice to know my family isn't perfect.

Babe, no one's families are even remotely perfect. That's what makes them family. And I know it's a cultural thing, but I think that's pretty cool.
