This month – Happy Birthday Seth… It is finally starting to look like spring. The snow is melting, the sky stays blue a little longer than normal and it isn’t quite as cold. I miss my kids and their spouses and grand kids. It is amazing that I thought it probably would be easier once the kids left and were doing well on their own. It doesn’t get easier, just different, more people to love and care about. Well with my brothers and sisters and children we total over 50 people now – well on our way to 60. Then I start my spouses family, than adding uncles and aunts and cousins. It just keeps growing, bigger and bigger. Love is a strange thing, the more you give it away, the more it just keeps growing. I was missing my grandparents today. I bet they are looking down at their families and feel that love, look how big their families are. The family reunion that we are going to hold as soon as we all get up their will be great. It will be amazing.

There are people I have met that think they show love by being full of sarcasm and think that by being sarcastic – they are funny – when really they are putting others down.

Jen just had Maia and she is beautiful and awesome. Jacob is a good big brother and Randy and Jen are awesome parents. Ross is headed to Kuwait and hopefully God willing he and Sarah will be protected while away from each other. We miss him already and he hasn’t even left the country. Jess is almost ready to leave home and explore the world. It is interesting how life works. No it is never fair (wishful thinking), it is never easy, but oh it is so worth it…. Have a great March! Make each and every day count as well as each and every hour. Love Me!
