You're just going to have to trust me when I tell you that these two, despite their strikingly different features, are indeed first cousins of common blood...
We're looking forward to years of fun as they grow up together.
That picture is so sweet! The post about Reality is really good. None of us is promised a future beyond this moment, but few of us are able to admit it, especially aloud. My Nannie talked to me about Heaven and how she wanted to go (in her sleep, of course... and she did!). We also talked about what kind of funeral she wanted--- from the service to the songs. She said she had a hard time talking to her "kids" about it. I didn't enjoy thinking about her being gone, but the reality is there when you're old(er) and have buried your spouse. It's kind of staring you in the face. I'm glad you and Tricia are realistic, yet hopeful, about your future. I'm sure it's part of the reason your blog is SO well-loved. You're real and that comes through in your writings. People appreciate it. I do pray that you and Tricia are the "exception." And that your life together is longer than anyone can imagine. You are a beautiful family. =)
Oh Nate, this picture is so precious! GR is so munchable sweet kissing her cousin who must be the equally sweet Evaine! What a great picture, it just made me grin from ear to ear! Thank you dear Heavenly Father for these two beautiful cousins and their families!
I think Gwyneth is saying, I might be small but watch this head lock I can put on you! No really they are both adorable!! What sweet Kissin' Cousins! Irene
