In truth a family is what you make it.
It is made strong, not by number of heads counted at the dinner table,
but by the rituals you help family members create, by the memories you share,
by the commitment of time, caring,and love you show to one another,
and by the hopes for the future you have as individuals and as a unit.
Today I thank the Lord for the precious moments today!
We welcomed Michael home for a visit, how I miss him now that he is so far away.
Raychele, Michael, grandma all sitting around laughing, planning our days.
Catching up on our lives one by one, yet there is still so much more to say.
Shopping with Raychele, getting new clothes and such for senior pictures, they grow up sooo fast.
The sounds of the storm approaching.
Thank you Lord today was a great day!
