There is nothing more important than family

"There is nothing more important than family"

Those seven words should be etched in stone on the sidewalks that lead to every happy home.

I feel so blessed to have a family that is filled with some of the best people this world will ever know...and one that inspires gratitude, joy, and deep appreciation.

Our family is such an essential part of my life, my dreams, my highest hopes, and my sweetest memories... and I thank you with all my heart for being such a beautiful, precious, and important part of every day.

Because we are family...

We have a place to go where arms are always open and hearts want to know what they can do to keep us happy, healthy, and safe.

We have a haven where we can laugh and play and renew the energies exhausted by stress and stain ---- a sanctuary where we can heal from pain and sorrow and find hope and faith. We have customs and traditions to keep with the people who are linked to us in history and in the precious memories we've built together.

We have a snug spot where we are always comfortable ---- and loved ones are gathered around to love, support, and rejoice in the highlights of our lives.

We have all the best things money could never buy...because we are family.
