My Siblings are Treasured Friends

I treasure my siblings smile, laughter, hugs, kindness, support, and listening hear. I seek out their wisdom and advise in many areas of my life from kids raising to baking goodies. Siblings are God given friends. We had a wonderful mother who taught us by example to cherish your sisters & brothers and build lasting relationships with them with a heart of charity.

A Good Thought...

"No matter what you've done for yourself or for humanity, if you can't look back on having given love and attention to your own family what have you really accomplished."--Anonymous

I came across a piece of note paper I was going to throw away as I try to declutter my room of the little items that have seemed to accumulate over the past weeks.  I thought this was a great reminder for myself to come across again as we enter the holiday season and life seems to have a million and one things to get done each day. I love this time of year when we all seem to be more thoughtful, kind, and generous. It reminds me to keep focused on the things that really matter--my family in its entirety and their needs emotionally, spiritually, socially, and physically.
