Wow! What a weekend!

What a great weekend. I have so many great pics to share and fun stories. I'll post those this week. I just wanted to write and express how important family is to me. As I'm growing older, yes I can't believe it's happening, I'm learning how dear my family is to me, not just Tim and the girls, but all my extended family and in-laws. No, they're not perfect and I could sit and list off all their imperfections, but honestly where does this get me? no where! Yes, I've had hard situations happen because of other people's choices, but again I'm learning to look at the positives and love them at where they're at right now. I would want to treated in the same way. I don't know if I'm really making sense! Hang in here with me. It's just that this weekend I believe the Lord showed me He has placed me in this family for a lot of reasons, but the main one is to show His love to them. I pray I did this and will continue to do.
I also I'm learning how much I want to teach my girls how important family is to them. Whether it's sending someone a note, going to birthday parties, letting someone live with you when they have no where else to go, or taking care of someone until the end. These are all things I want my girls to see in and through me." I pray Lord I'm doing it well. I pray for Your strength and wisdom. I only want to be a living example of You to them."
