But him giving her permission to take a rest, like you've earned the rest — oof, that really, really got me. That idea of you're so strong… [she trails off] sorry, I get emotional thinking about it… but for someone to tell her, "You lived a great life and you were an incredible mother and you had all of this tragedy befall you, and you still made such a beautiful thing of all of it. And now you're allowed to rest. I think just getting that [she starts to cry] permission from someone that she didn't even know very well, but loved so much and held in such high regard really just went such a long way. And that, oof, that got me. Still gets me, obviously.

I'm sorry but I think Kevin should have ended up with Madison. Sure they don't have the epic romance/destiny vibe that Kevin and Sophie have but that's what I like about them. Kevin and Madison were not supposed to happen. She was a girl he slept with randomly one time. But they grew on each other. They grew together. They started a family. Kevin and Madison are messy. And interesting. And real. It would have been a great contrast to Randall and Beth's relationship. Or Jack and Rebecca's. I would have loved for Kevin's story to say 'Hey, not everyone ends up with their first love. Sometimes love happens by accident. And it's just as beautiful.'

Does it ever make you emotional to remember that Kevin Pearson, who was at odds with Jack when he died but knowing he still loved him, who spent so long trying to live up to the legacy of his father but for a long time was the furthest from it, ended up being the most like him at the end? That he ended up doing what Jack and Rebecca couldn't do, by reconciling the estranged members of his family through Nicky and that he later did the same for Miguel by reuniting him with his son? That by reaching out to Nicky and forming a bond with Cassidy he was able to fulfill his dad's dream of Big Three Homes? That by forging these connections he was able to finally have the wife, the mother of his children, and his best friend form the extended family to give to his children that he never really had himself? That he was finally able to take all the members of that extended family and gather them around Rebecca in her last days....and that he was able to do all of that by working at a job he didn't like to support the one he did and provide for the rest of the family? That at the end, Kevin is the backbone that kept them all together....just like Dad?
