I guess I will apologize up front if this post is going to seem a little “out there.” For those of you who have been with me from the start or at least for a while, you already know that sometimes I see connections or have deep thoughts about my (our) place in the universe. This is not new to my life since losing Morgan.
Family is not always blood, it’s the people who are there for you in your darkest hour and there for you in joyful times. Even if they don’t agree with your views they attempt to understand them rather than disown you for your different perspective. I am happy that you have learned to live with the hurt that L and K have caused in the past and I will pray that they might see the light as THEY are really missing out not being in your life. I’m impressed with D, it takes courage to self reflect and apologize when you realize you have hurt someone. It warms my heart that he’s been offering support and I got to see him after all these years! ❤️
Oh, my dear friend, I wish I could say things to comfort you about your siblings. I’m going to read this again and pray about any advice or consolation, the Lord would want me to offer to you. Thank you for sharing this with us so that we can all be praying. Secondly, I am so glad you had a great walk and that you got to be blessed by the love of God through the body of Christ. Abbie sounds like a wonderful young lady and it sounds like you also have good neighbors and even utility workers! How sweet, it’s as if he knew you needed a cheerful hello.
I love the wildflowers too. I hate to mow in the spring, I’d rather have high grass and flowers for a few weeks. And harvest dandelions!
May God lovingly bring you assurance and peace. (I have four siblings and two of them have hurt the family very deeply, so although the circumstances are different, I can understand the pain)
Hi and thank you. As I was trying to say, I don't feel the pain from the siblings anymore, but it explains why I'm so thankful for everyone else who stepped and steps in. I am thinking about keeping a decent sized patch somewhere to harvest dandelions, too.

Anyone that crosses your path is blessed.
Thanks so much Jill. You just made my day! You are my family, and I appreciate the support of how I'm handling those biological members.
