My Family

(Yesterday was MY family's turn to have their pictures taken...but before my friend Heather got there to take some of all 4 of us, I took some of our kids)

When I look at these pictures, I am in awe over how BIG they look.....

and of how happy they look....

And how in love they are with each other practially all the time....

Then I look at US.  Me and MY family...how much we've been through...and that we've gotten through it all only because of the Lord's strength and provision....and that because of it, we're stronger, and more in love....and all I feel is awe.

I am SO thankful that our hardships have brought us closer because sadly for so many, hardships tear families apart.

I feel blessed

and filled with His grace 

and I am madly 

and utterly in love 

with my family.

God couldn't have picked a better one

for ME!

Thank you Lord!
