Perfect Day


We will look back on those pictures and remember it always as the perfect day that it was - full of play and laughter from the children and the adults. All of us in our white shirts and blue jeans - a family created by those two who somehow still love each other and have stuck it out through the trials, who raised three children who understand committment, love, and family. Is there a better tribute to my mom and dad that having us all together, all matching, all happy (even though we, too, have fought through our own trials). Brad and Christina with their beautiful girls; Brent and me with our wonderful boys; Nathan and Dawn who've not yet embarked on family-life but who will - and Mom and Dad who started it all. I was so proud to be with this family, my family, whom I love so dearly and who have made me who I am. I am so thankful.
