Today I am so grateful for my family. I have been blessed with a large family and a loving caring family. I think that as my lovely daughter would say, "I hit the jackpot". Next weekend I get to go visit a cousin and I am super excited to spend time with her. She has been such an incredible influence for good in my life. My husband doesn't have any cousins, because both of his parents are an only child. I hadn't really thought about it before.
We have exciting things happening in the lives of the family, good marriages and all the blessings of marriage. I am just over the moon with joy today thinking about the exciting times we are in right now.
I hope that my family knows how much I love them. I hope I have been able to express that in my life. Sometimes I think it is hard to know if others really understand the depth of that love.
I am so grateful for my parents love too. Over the course of my life I have learned just how much they really do love me. They have proven it time and time again. Especially my own mother. Through my relationship with them and my grandparents I understand how love can look different from different people. When I was small I didn't understand that, but I do now. And I am glad, because I realize I have always been loved and important to at least a few people.
Family is just another expression of God's love for us. He just thought of everything. Thanks DAD!
