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 Simple Poem-With a great message!

I recently heard this poem quoted and it touched me and made me want to stop and remember what is really important to me...my family. I hope that my children feel of my deep and abiding love for them. I am trying to refocus my efforts to focus on the things that last! Because I don't want to miss it for the world or the things of this world. I know that everyday matters and we as mothers and sisters have a lasting impact on our family, friends, and neighbors. Thank you for mattering to me and being a part of my life! Enjoy the simpleness that life has to offer and be happy! With Love Jill

WHAT LAST?
Ice cream melts,

Flowers wilt,

The leaves of autumn fall.

Sunsets fade,

Seasons change,

And children don’t stay small.

Balloons pop,

Snowfalls stop—

Do summers last? 
Never!

Weekends fly,

Today will die,

But … 

FAMILIES ARE
FOREVER!
