Superbowl Sunday is another opportunity to gather as a family and feast together. Our superbowl picture a year ago found us all dressed up as we closed a family fast for baby Tanner. It was somber, but a sweet memory to watch a family with heavy hearts rally around one of their own.
A tender memory for parents to witness your sons and nephews ... a band of brothers ... all young fathers, call down the powers of heaven to bless a young one. The year has shown tender mercies to all of them, specifically Tanner's positive outcome. A year shows us the obstacles before us were NOT greater than the power behind us!
We are blessed with a loving Heavenly Father that designed for us to gain strength and support from family in the highs and lows of life. As we continue to fast and pray for Heather's health, houses to be sold, jobs to continue, new babies to arrive safely ... we find power in the circle to help sustain each of us in our earthly burdens.
So happy ... WE ARE FAMILY! xo
This is a strange journey we walk, full of peaks and valleys. But since God [and family] is in both places, we walk unafraid. ~ Barbara Johnson ~

This made me cry. Your family's faith is inspiring and strengthening. I always love a reminder of His great blessings and the power we can call upon.
"The obstacles before us were NOT greater than the power behind us."
I might have to steal this to get us through the next few months! :)
Thanks Connie.
You summed up perfectly this tender mercy. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about our year mark. Love you!
