We spent a beautiful day today with family, some were mine, and some were not, but we all felt like we were one. LeAnn and I talked about our love for you, how dedicated you are and how much we both love you! Taylor was set apart as a missionary, so we shared lots of tears, both tears of joy and tears of sadness. She leaves on Tuesday, so more tears to come! <br /><br />I can hardly wait for your family to come to the UK. I'm especially looking forward to seeing a picture of you with your kids...and the big smile that I know you will have! You have waited a long time for this trip, and I know it will be wonderful! I love the way you have their pictures displayed in your home!<br /><br />I also love the quotes you shared, all of them so beautiful! Like you, I don't understand how or why some don't believe in a loving God or even in a hereafter, but that's why we were given agency...I guess it's not for me to question. I just know that I am very thankful for a Heavenly Father who loves me, and wants me to return to Him. <br /><br />Better run, another long day tomorrow. Have a wonderful week, Marie!! Sure do love you! XOXO<br /><br />Hugs and Love,<br />Barb<br /> Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158897469583069249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-80441249649969675092020-02-23T20:14:15.355+00:002020-02-23T20:14:15.355+00:00Loved your talk about family, Marie.

You have all the modern technologies to help you stay in touch. You must be over the moon that Anthony and Eileen are coming for a visit. I'm sure you will make every minute count and will be counting the minutes until they arrive. I'm so happy for you.

Being/having a family is not always easy and I know I made tons of mistakes, but trying to do better when we know better is what is important. God always knows our hearts. Family is forever.
