My sister

... are there words to describe her?




She is... my sister


She is always there.  Always with an open heart.  Wanting to grow with me.  Showing her love through simple actions.



Working together during this burdensome time has been beautiful to me.  My lovely sister has been... my sister.  In the truest form.  

How can that simple word be so beautiful to me?


Because Jesus placed us in this place.  He is intertwining our hearts.


Every day... in every meal that we prepare...


In ways I never imagined. 

I love you Emma.



[and Happy Birthday you 20-year old today!!!!!]

Happy Birthday to a beautiful new friend. :)

The pictures are all so wonderful...I especially like the last of you two. And I feel the same about my sister (who turned 20 in April.)

Blessings and happiness,

A hearty echo to all the foregoing wishes, Emma! May the Lord use the coming year to bring you more richness, more beauty of soul, more true happiness than any year previous...it is possible with Him who directs each day. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

[Thank you, Johanna, for announcing your sister's birthday and sharing your love for each other! What an encouragement just to hear it...]
