Today was a pretty hard day. My sweet brother Dennis and his wife Johanna are moving away. God has called them to Texas, and it is so hard to see them go. My brother has been such a tremendous influence in my life and in my faith walk. As a military soldier that has had to bury too many friends, and who has seen his friends suffer horrifically, as a police officer who has seen the worst of human kind, he has remained true to our God, true to the knowledge that God is with us in whatever comes our way. My brother has reminded me continuously about claiming God’s promises over my life and the lives of my children. With all the illness, hospitalizations and anxiety that comes along with that, I often times get worried and stressed and he brings me right back to the realization that God has totally got it all under control. It is going to be hard not seeing him as often as I would like.
We had so much fun planning his party. It was texas as well as patriotic themed. My brother DJ and his wife Lyndsea came up from Florida and the rest of us were all here as well as my parents.. I also love getting all the cousins together. There are now 12! And they range between 2months to 15 years. SO MUCH FUN!!!!
Beautifully Blessed
