Now that my great grandma has passed on to glory and all of us kids have grown up it's mostly just the 11 sisters and brothers (all but one of 12 is still alive) and some of their kids, but I try to make it every couple of years. This year, unfortunately, I'm going to miss it by one week.

Our family has experienced so many blessings in the 7 months Jan has been fighting this brain cancer that we would not have otherwise experienced. Though this is not what we would have wished, we know that there is a reason and our Father knows best. We choose to be thankful daily for we have many things to be thankful for. This is our 2nd time with an immediate family member as my Dad had to fight an aggressive cancer. We trust our Father knows best. <BR/>I'll remember to pray for your family, especially this one who is beginning chemo. <BR/>Great post for TT.<BR/>Blessings<BR/>CherylAddicted to Beadzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13352940825972833863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4252377263602187066.post-49732706258355480662008-06-11T23:06:00.000-05:002008-06-11T23:06:00.000-05:00Oh Melanie,You are rich in blessings.
