There truly is nothing more special than the gift of family, is there?
My family all live in South Africa.
Yesterday we traveled to Denver to pick up my Dad and Beth. My kids were so super excited. Oh how they love these two. The distance between us has never affected our relationship negatively–it has only brought us closer together. When we are together, we treasure every minute.
We arrived at the airport a little early. Such a special day for these little ones.
We waited.
And waited.
Finally the time got nearer, so we moved into a position where we could see perfectly.
Got our cameras ready…
Yayeeeee…there they come!
Such a joyful reunion.
A sweet embrace. It has been way too long, Kellan.
We are so very thankful they made the extremely long trip. All that way to come and be with our children while we travel to the Ukraine. I can leave knowing that my kids are in great hands–and they’ll have the best time too.
The gift of family. There really is nothing quite like it. The Lord knows we all need family.
Counting my blessings today that I have my family here.
