Thirty Days of Thankful – Day One

Creating a spirit of thankfulness…
I am so thankful for the Christian marriage of my parents, 42 years ago today on 11/1/68. Through their union they brought forth 3 daughters and several years later, 3 grandchildren. To be connected to my sisters not only through our maiden name but also through the blood and flesh connection my parents gave us is a gift I will always cherish.
Becoming my children’s mother and an aunt to my nephew, are opportunities my parents created for me when they become one. I will always be grateful.
Thank you Lord, for bringing forth our family on this day so many years ago and making it a part of your great story.
Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you for writing such a sweet, touching and poignant entry – I can’t wait for the rest of the family to read it!
thank you for your sweet words Stacey. I hope everyone can find a source of comfort this week, I know being with my sisters has helped me a lot. much love to you! ~shelley~
