Much of yesterday was spent with my brothers and their wives as we had a family get together once again. We were having them each month until the stroke hit last end of November. It was so nice to have a chance to really catch up. Family is so important. Tonight we have one of our daughter’s family coming for a bbq. This was actually generated by our oldest granddaughter who is missing them. These events are finally returning and it makes my dad/grandpa heart happy. Kathy is getting better too so I know it brings a smile to her face seeing these events restarting.

God is truly #1 in my life and I don’t ever want that to change. But, right behind Him is family. The value of family really can’t be measured. The older I get the more I cherish these times and thank God for each one of them.
