Love Letter To My Daughters & Families

I am just wanting to make note of how blessed I feel as I watch YOU, my daughters and your families grow. First of all, I love my sons in law. They are great people... and I consider them all to be front runners for 1st place for Best In Show in the Dennis and Jan Hanson Son In Law Contest. The juries still out...but keep trying, you are almost in first place....! 

Anyway, I am so proud as I watch my daughters together with these A rated sons in law raise my grandchildren. You are all doing such a wonderful job. I love seeing how you care for each child as individuals, care for who they are as people and what their individual personalities demand and respond to.
You all do this so well! You are such great parents.
I know these children will be such a blessing to the world and have many gifts to share.

I especially am thinking these things as I see Clara...She is currently, for a few more days our youngest granchild. She is a happy child and her smile will make your heart stop. Well, I hope not, but seriously, I don't know if I've seen a happier child. She smiles at you like you are the best thing that ever happened to her...and you know your not, but it is still just that amazing.
What touches me most is that as I enter the second year of the nonprofit that has as its core value orphan care, I am even more amazed at the love these children are blessed with. Living, healthy parents who invite their relatives and friends to love on their children almost every waking moment. The orphans I hope to serve with my endeavor don't have that. They are the poorest of poor and very likely barely have one human as a baby that loves them. This is true and it tears at my heart and soul every time I see my abundantly loved grand children. I think that if I can help just one of them, love on one and be there, somehow in someway, provide shelter and care that is more than they would have had yesterday. So, those are my thoughts this day after Easter. He is Risen. He died, that we might have life, and that more abundantly. Let's love our own, and decide as a family to love the orphans who have so little love in their lives.



Who gets to be this blessed in this life... us I guess....I am just asking.
I love you all.

Great Blog, Weegy. Now, you have a leg up on everyone for the best Easter blog.
I do concur that we are blessed as a family and we have great sons-in-laws. All the parents are doing a fantastic job on with their children. They give their kids attention and a lot of love. Keep up the good work. On a side note; the KC family should get outside more and get some sun. The English family needs to find different farmer hats.

Mom, this is so sweet. Very loving and thoughtful. I wish I could write you something so lovely. Jason and my family so appreciate you being in our lives. God really has blessed me with a mom like you. I love you so much.
I do have one complaint about the post-there seems to be a very bloated with child woman holding one of my daughters and standing next to my husband. LOL!
