Family Is........


Today Paige had a new experience "FINGER PAINTING". Well I think everyone lived and to my knowledge, no one got hurt. She did not like it at first, but as you can see once she got into it was a lot of fun. This was a fun summer activity that was enjoyed by all.
Today Linda came to visit us for lunch. We all love Miss Linda so much. She bought me a good book back in May called FIVE STAR FAMILIES by Carol Kuykendall. It is a very good book and through out the book is different quotes about what family is. I thought I would share them with you and then tag you to come up with a few meaning of Family for yourself.
Family means.... people that love you and give you room to grow
Family is ..... the place that you call home
Family means..... being who you are and getting away with it
Family is.......knowing that you are all on the same team
Family is....a group of people who know your faults and CHOOSE to love you anyway
Family means......not always having to put your best foot forward
Family is.... a group that you never feel left out of
Family means ....being loved when you least deserve it
Family is... a soft place to land
Family is... WHERE GOD SHOW YOU HIS LOVE
What does family mean to you? Some of these are from the book and some are what family means to me personally. There is so much more to say about what a family is. So, I tag you. Tell us what is family to you. This was a neat thing to think about and I'm sure you won't be sorry.

I am glad Paige started to enjoy the finger painting. I remember doing that with the kids when they were really little. Nice memories.
Love the family list.
