la reconnaissance

Today I'm going to get all sappy on you and tell you how much I love my family.

Even though they might be a little crazy (but I had to get it from somewhere, right?)

My mom has always loved me, no matter what. I am so grateful for that constant, Christ-like love she has never denied me.

I can always rely on Karl for a good laugh.

And we can always count on Michael to make funny faces when I ask him to smile for the camera, can't we?

I'm truly thankful that my mom and brother came up to visit, even if it was just for one night. We had a great time just taking a family walk, goofing around on a playground, and watching "Tangled"! I made homemade pizza and some caramel-covered brownies. I think that was honestly the first time I've ever cooked a meal for them.

I'm glad that families can be together forever (even if we look a little blurry!)
