This is not my first Thanksgiving away from home, but it is the Thanksgiving that puts me closer to my first Christmas not with my family. I am so thankful for a family that I can miss...and that miss me back. I'm not sure why God decided to give the hubbs and I such great families, but sometimes I think that He blessed us so that we could be family to those who were not as blessed.
I love you guys and wish the hubbs and I could be with you this holiday season!
Much love,
Emily Elizabeth
It's definitely a "catch 22" type of thing...love your family...it's a wonderful thing, but, at times, it can hurt SO bad!
ReplyDeleteSo...I'm glad you miss us and that we miss you...it's the good and wonderful that we miss when they are absent.
love you, em...and I'm so thankful for your love and life (Jon's, too),
