"If our devotion is to the cause of humanity, we will be quickly defeated and broken-hearted, since we will often be confronted with a great deal of ingratitude from other people. But if we are motivated by our love for God, no amount of ingratitude will be able to hinder us from serving one another."

family time

what a delight to finally have my mom and sister-in-law visit us in harrisburg!  thanks to my big sister, lynn, for schlepping them out here.
the boys provided free entertainment, as usual.  dutch blitz, visits from neighbor, jen and michelle were added bonuses to the day.  we had a great time together!  thank goodness lynn was taking pictures while i prepared the meal, chicken enchiladas, corn casserole and salad.
 don't deviate from the rules or you'll hear about from mom.
to the game police squad:  if you are looking for a captain, she's your gal.
such a great grammy
they were laughing and telling funny stories about lynn and bob painting lauren's old room.
she's hold the color swatch chart as we were all picking out colors for this and that.
 mom, we are blessed to have you!
 we're not just sisters, but dear friends.  i really love these girls!
when i was a little, little girl i wanted to much to be just like them.
we have so many great memories over the years.
of course, i have fewer because i'm SO much younger.  hahahaha!
the boys love their grammy q!

 mom, thank you for your years of devotion and love to me and the rest of our family.
without your prayers...well, let's just say, i'm very grateful for you.
i love you, mom.
