5 weeks since I posted......... living 3 hrs from Boston.....it has hit us hard......


Also in the last two weeks I've said good luck to these two brothers-my nephews- who have left for boot camp - on the left Jason- Navy......and Mat to the Marines......... That was very difficult in these uneasy times-but we are so proud of their dedication and service to our country.
But life does go on......... as long as we remember the everyday important things..............
That every little adventure can lead to a smile..................
That helping grumpy pick out the right bit from his tool box is just as important as.......

Those big decisions in Washington................
And every minute teaching love....... Is what it's all about for our future.........
as my brother took his sons tubing for the only time this summer........ I know his heart must have been so heavy....... Yet so proud...... he's an awesome dad......
Two very strong parents......... And a new Navy recruit and Marine.............  <3
I love you all.............
Love, Aunt Rain

Oh Rain your brother and his family should be very proud I can only imagine how hard this is.
I love that line "And every minute teaching love....... Is what it's all about for our future" it is so very true.
I love all your beautiful photos and there is much to be thankful for in this world we live and I am very proud of all our men and women in both our countries who sacrifice so much for us and their families who also sacrifice so much. Take care HUGS Great post.Prayers to your family. B
