Things I know for certain...

I have learned a lot about people in these last several weeks. I am so thankful for the people in our lives and the support and love they show us each and every day. Our life is blessed, centered, and exactly where it should be at this point. These are some things I have recently observed.

1.) When someone is going through a difficult or stressful time, a good friend can display a superhuman ability to love.
2.) No matter how stressful my life may become, my big brother Bobby can always make me laugh.
3.) My sisters, Susan and Becky, are always there, quietly loving us and doing whatever it takes to make everything better.
4.) Some of our best family members aren't related by blood, and some of our blood relatives will never understand the meaning of family.
5.) My mom knows what I'm feeling without me saying a word...and usually knows exactly what to do about it.
6.) My nephew, Caleb, knows exactly when I need a hug and sometimes holds on a second or two longer than I do.
7.) My nephews, Lucas and Jackson, can give a smile that fills an entire room. They have an energy that just feeds into everyone around them.
8.) Sometimes a little ice cream is the best medicine.
9.) People who take care of a sick family member full time hold a special place in my heart. In most cases, they do not have the blessing of knowing that it's all going to be better soon.
10.) My husband makes prayerful decisions and always ends up doing what is right and good for the betterment of others. He is always more concerned about the well-being of others than he is about himself. I am unbelievably proud to be his wife.
11.) When I get caught up in finding solutions, I need to take more time to breathe and pray. God can calm my spirit and give me the answers if I just take the time to listen.

Goodnight!
