Words of Wisdom from Dr. Seuss

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind, don't matter and those who matter, don't mind.”

Do you ever wonder?

Do you ever wonder how or why you were blessed with the family that you have?
I often wonder how on earth I am so lucky to have the beautiful, wonderful, fabulous children that I have.
I wonder how my heart can be so full of love and pride for my children.
I wonder how they just know when I need a hug or a smile.
I wonder what I would ever do without Riley, how would I survive without him.
I wonder how on a day that your daughter is feeling not very important or loved, a letter suddenly appears in the mail addressed to her from one of her favorite aunts and makes her feel so loved and so special.
I wonder how my mom always knows just when to call, or when to take me on an outing to Costco!
I wonder how my family can be so in tune with things that are happening with my family, when sometimes I feel so distanced from it all.
I wonder how so many of my prayers are answered, when I don't even know what I am praying for.
I wonder how my family can be my best friends, the ones who pick you up when you feel so knocked down.
I wonder how my family can be so amazing and how every one can accomplish their goals and dreams. I seriously burst with pride for each and every person in our family.
I wonder why and how I am so lucky to be surrounded by such wonderful people who know and love me and my family and I am grateful each and every day for all of you, I love my family!


"The love in our Family flows strong and deep,
leaving us memories to treasure and keep."
