Every day feels like a new adventure with my parents. Some days they remember everything, and other days it's like they're lost in a fog. But through it all, love shines through. I cherish the moments when my dad tells the same story for the hundredth time. It reminds me of the joy in his voice, even if he forgets the details. We laugh, we cry, and we hold each other close. I've learned to be patient, to listen, and to embrace the little things. Like when my mom smiles at a familiar song, her eyes lighting up. It's those moments that remind me of who they truly are.
