Aren't we all astonished at the happenings in our world? Atonished at how our Heavenly Father guards our hearts from the unimaginable... yet softly and gently holds us close.
Astonished that soon another birthday for Joanne will be here. Astonished that time passes too quickly and sometimes much too slowly.
Astonished that I have been remiss in not sharing my affection for each of my sisters more directly and more frequently.
Astonished that I still ache for my mother, my sister and my brother.
Astonished at how hard we hold on and how often we let go so we can grasp to hold again.
Everyday I am grateful for my parents, and my sisters, and my brother, and my husband and my children.
Thanksgiving is for our blessings and our patience and our endurance and our continued Thanksgiving.
Be Strong and Take Courage!
