So, I'm loving the family pictures but have to ask what I always wonder when I see your family - which side of the family passed along that gorgeous red hair to your kids? Seriously, your kids all look like Breck hair commercials!
I think you were born to be a mother Donna and it is a job that is more important than any other in the world. Not that daddies are not handy to have around, too. ;-) love and prayers, jep
Please map out everyone's name in pic 1. I LOVE this pictorial and know what you mean. It is truly a blessing to have a family that you love so dearly, that God has bestowed upon you, and that you cherish to the very depth of your soul. You did good sweet girl.
Such beautiful posts...I had some sad family news today. Seeing your pictures make me smile through tears. Life is fleeting. I need to pay better attention.
Thank you all...you are each dear. My cousin's youngest, her 18-yr-old son, was killed by a hit-and-run drunk driver Thursday. My heart is aching for her. She lives far away and I haven't seen her in a long time, but we reconnected on Facebook. She's reeling, but her faith is strong. I appreciate, and I know she and her family do too, the prayers offered on her behalf.
This is the most wonderful post ever.

I thought of this - and of you, Di, - whilst cleaning up antibiotic-inspired diarrhea from my 4-year-old
DeleteSorry - blogger got stuck - I had just read your entry and as I scrubbed, I laughed, and said aloud, 'Yep. Di says so. Living the dream'.

About the red hair:
My mom's side of the family and my husband was a red head before it turned white.
