I’ve been awaiting the arrival of my younger sister and her three boys all day! They finally made it around 8pm. All day I’ve been making sure I have everything done so that I can make sure the time I spend with her and my nephews is without distractions. So I won’t be making this long. 😉
We have not seen my nephews (Johnny 7, Jack 4 and James Ray 3) since Christmas. Despite the length of time between visits its as if we’ve been around them forever.
There is something magical about the family bond that runs deep. Even though their moms are connected by both genetics and some crazy times spent together with our crazy family, our boys have only been around each other a handful of times yet it is as if they value the connection (possibly even more than their grown up moms!). 😉
I miss my big family, all of my cousins, and I even miss all the drama that comes with a big family. If you are near your family and get to have frequent dinners, celebrate the little momentous events and even have them to turn to in that sudden time of need, do not take for granted the gem of a gift you’ve been given.
Blessings
