Day 1 of 10 Day Thanksgiving Challenge | Love of Family
For me, it has always been Family First! That is the promise made to myself from the beginning, every decision made with them in mind.
Commitment to love, honor and family is a powerful bond that exists in our marriage. My husband's parents have been married for over 60 years and they instilled in him many wonderful qualities that are long standing.
The love for our two children has never wavered. I was a hands-on mom when the boys were growing up. It was important to be engaged, to remain in good communication, to teach and be open to learning as well.
When other mom's dropped their kids off at the pool, I jumped in with mine, enjoying the time spent. When they played sports, I was in the stands cheering them on, embarrassing them often but I was present!
Both of our children are married to beautiful, strong women and are maintaining households of their own. We are excited about their futures together and anticipate a happily ever after for both couples.
Now that we have a grandchild, (our little red-headed Ruger) another generation begins. His mom and dad will become the caretakers, rule makers and disciplinarians while showering unconditional love.
Even through some challenges overs the years, the sincere commitment has remained. My heart continues to beat strong in celebration for my loved ones and Family First still rules our every day lives!
Thankful every day to be blessed with the love shared between us all and looking forward to what the future may hold.
