SO I just have to express how so, very thankful I am to be a part of the family God has placed me in! I have missed spending time with them and this weekend has been so fun. Something that I can share, that I know not everyone can, is that my family shares the same faith. We are not only a family here on earth, but we are family in a spiritual way too. Not to mention the craziness that goes on when we are together ( my little cousins and my big brother are wrestling on the floor being obnoxiously loud) But that's what makes this time so great. My house is dead silent most of the time, so my loud extended family makes me laugh and smile because I don't get all that craziness at home. I love them because they are so different in and of themselves.
I have to tell a quick story. It will probably embarrass some people, but what the hey! My cousin had the idea to have the family right what they are thankful for on a Popsicle stick and then she would read them out loud ( Erin is 9 by the way) SO my new sister-in-law had the hilarious idea to right that she was thankful for intercourse ( I mean what new married person wouldn't be) But Erin read it as insurance and the whole family broke out in laughter once we told them what is supposed to say. That is for sure a memory that I will NEVER forget! But it's those little, funny moments that make me so thankful for my family, They put I smile on my face and make me laugh. Even though we are so different, God placed us together because we all need each other and fit together perfectly. We have our moments, but what family doesn't? The most important thing is that we all have the most important thing in common: believing in Jesus Christ as our Savior and sharing that faith with each other.
So as my cousins bite and pumble each other at thhis very moment. I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving and Holiday season as we prepare for the coming of Christ OUR Savior.
