Goodbye, For Now

We lost a member of our extended family this weekend (Ryan's Uncle Larry), and that loss really puts into perspective the things in our lives that are the most important.  As we begin the new year, I hope I can keep my focus on those things that matter the most: my family, my friends, and the blessings we have. 

Family was of crucial important to Uncle Larry; he had so many stories of cousins and second cousins and his childhood with his brothers and sister.  My kids (and I) are so blessed to have close family all around us, and I'm glad Uncle Larry was able to spend the day with us this summer and meet our little guy.
