It has been awhile since I have addend anything to this blog. I can't even remember what I wrote last. Dad, Wilson, and Grandpa Przybylski came down this past weekend to see Bridger play football. Of course Bridger is still out from his concussion so we went to the park and played for a minute. Then they came and ate a Chili's and got ready for the big BSU game... As you know BSU won the game. I am sure you, Deane, and Grandma Przybylski were watching and cheering. Remember that was Bridges favorite memory of you and him, watching the Fiesta Bowl when we were in Boise.
A lot has happened since I last wrote. As you know, Grandma Przybylski has passed. I just looked and it has been months. The time has passed so quickly. I spoke at Grandma Przybylski's funeral with Jason and Melissa. It was quite an experience. I was grateful for the opportunity to speak and really felt you there. I shared some experiences about you and the peace we felt when your spirit left your mortal body. I am sure your ascent into heaven was a great trip for you and for those waiting. I saw grandma a little more than a week before she passed, thoughts and memories of you just swept thru my mind. She laid there and just held my hand. She rested for about 30 minutes, the whole time holding my hand. What a great experience it was. May the two of you enjoy your time together on the other side!
I was on my way to Twin Falls today and while I was flipping through my music, I came upon a Faith Hill song. It was titled "there you'll be". I know you will always be there for me... I love you and I miss you. Good night.
When I think back
On these times
And the dreams
We left behind
I'll be glad 'cause
I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back
On these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
Well you showed me
How it feels
To feel the sky
Within my reach
And I always
Will remember all
The strength you
Gave to me
Your love made me
Make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
'Cause I always saw in you
My light, my strength
And I want to thank you
Now for all the ways
You were right there for me
You were right there for me
For always
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be

Wow!! It has been a long time. I haven't heard that song I don't think. It's got great lyrics though. I often think of mom and grandma's reunion there. I miss mom terribly but am sooo excited for the time when I will get to see her again. And how great it feels to know that that is what will happen. Thanks for reminding me of that Tony. Love you. I hope you know that!
