Happy Together in Georgia

The Gift of Family

One of the greatest gifts
That life can give to anyone
Is the very special love that families share...
As years go by,
It's good to know that there will always be
Certain people in our lives who care.
For there are countless things
That only families have in common
And memories that no one else can make...
And these precious ties that bind a family together
Are bonds that time and distance cannot break.
How fortunate we are
When we have relatives to love us,
It makes the world a happy place to be...
Few gifts in life
Will last as long
Or touch the heart as deeply
As the very special gift
Of family.

I am sorry to hear about your Mother's passing, but happy to read that you had a wonderful time with family in Georgia. Yay for your health!

Thanks so much, Shanna. It was just the blessing I needed so that I'd have the strength to come home and learn of new family trials, the other end of the spectrum.. It's definitely the last days! But nothing can make me forget the promises for those who hold out faithful, or return to faithfulness.
