A Family Blessing


One of the Christmas gifts that Cary gave me was this beautiful plaque expressing the core foundations of our family. I couldn't even read it out loud to the kids without crying, because the words behind this glass are not just words. We have experienced every one of these statements to the deepest part of who we are as a family. I wanted to share it with you.

It says:

In This Home

We believe...in living deeply, laughing often & loving always.

We believe...we were brought together to support and care for each other.

We believe...in celebrating together- Our faith, our heritage, our traditions.

We believe...that everyone's feelings count and that the uniqueness of each of us strengthens all of us.

We believe...in the power of forgiveness to heal and in the power of love to carry us through.

We believe...in one another In This Home.
