New family

I had breakfast with my dad today. I hadn't seen him in five years and I was nervous!! He hasn't ever been a part of my life. He has been making a cross country trip and decided to stop in Salt Lake and see me. I was a little apprehensive at first because he has told me before that he would be in Utah but never called or anything. But he did call and we decided a place to meet. When I got there I thought I was going to throw up from nerves. We talked a little about the past five years and there was a lot of awkward silences. When we left he told me he wants to have a relationship with me. I am going out to Pennsylvania (where he lives) in July and he wants to spend a day with me while I am there. I am not sure what we are going to do but I think I will be meeting the rest of my family that I don't know a whole lot about. I guess we will see how that goes. I'm scared.
