We are blessed however. If life were all rainbows and sunshine, we wouldn't appreciate them at all. As 2013 begins, we are beginning it with a growing family. What could be more of a blessing? Families are made in all sorts of ways. Some people choose the classic way of growing a family, births, boy meets girl... fall in love marriage. Our family.... not so much. But Family is God given, and God has blessed us. This past year we have been blessed with a Gramma, a Papa, a cousin, a few aunts and uncles, and a new sister in law. It was a big year of additions for us! Now, if you had to draw us on a family tree... we might not look so together, but that doesn't make us less of a family.
Sure, we knew each other before. But I think the beauty of a family, is the bond that holds them all together. We would not have made it without family around us. There were little things and big things, hard things and fun things, talks, tears, and prayers. The world could crumble right now, and I have so much faith that we would make it because of our family... you know, The Roberts, Converse, Billcliff family.... so as we start the new year, my first blog is a Thank you. Thank you to our family, who carried us through the storms, and made us stop to see the rainbows.
