12. Today I am grateful to be going to Scotland

I am currently at the Calgary airport waiting to board my flight to Glasgow. This will be my sixth trip to Scotland but the last time I went was 6 years ago so it has been awhile since I saw my Grandma and other family members. However, I did see some cousins in Utah last summer which was really nice. I was really hoping to go out for this year because my Grandma will be celebrating her 90^th birthday. It would have been so nice if my whole family could go but with my two younger sister’s just starting school and Melissa and JJ being busy with their children and school only me, my mom and brother were able to go. My mom and Craig are flying from Vancouver so I will see them at the airport. When we were planning on the dates to book the flight my parents told me that they would pay for my flight as a graduation gift which I think is a  really nice gift and I am really grateful to them. I am also grateful for my supervisor and program manager who hired me knowing that I had this trip booked and would be gone for 2 weeks. My friend, Nathan gave me a ride to the airport which I would also like to express gratitude for.
