My Family

Do you remember being in grade school and labouring over your assignment to write about your family. How proud you were to tell about your mom and dad and all your brothers and sisters? And then after diligently writing the four complete sentences mandatory for your paper with the one-inch lines, you got to draw a picture in the big open space on the top half. Hmmmm....this is my slightly more sophisticated version but with the same peacock pride. Being the little squirt with all my big sisters has always just been the way it's been. We all find ourselves in a particular place in a family and somehow we grow used to that place and used to the surroundings and used to the culture.
This is my family now. I am not so little. I found myself in this new place of being older and laughing and goofying off with my sisters all together. We had a fabulous get-together mid-May - with just the sisters and mom. Thanks all for coming! It was really amazing. The time to be with you all...my sisters, all together, just us...and not be the "baby". - although, yes, dear mom & dad I will always be the baby to you. :o) It was fun to laugh, joke and be goofy together and talk, share and learn of one another. And it was a good time of seeing God's grace on our lives and how He binds us together with His love and that grace though we are so far apart.
YAY! I love you all!
