I come from a family of five of us siblings, and although we were all born in Virginia, we have scattered. That means that I don’t get to see my distant siblings much, but they are ALWAYS in my thoughts and prayers. My older sister lives about an hour away, so I do visit her frequently.
From top to bottom is Ann, Steve, James and Denise. They are and always will be part of my heart. Who is close to your heart? Blessings for a day of thankfulness!

Vickie, That is so sweet. I totally get that. I had 2 brothers and 2 sisters. One sister died 5 years ago. She was the youngest of us all. She lived 500 miles away from me. My other sister lives about the same distance away now, and she was in China maybe 9 years, so that is a long way away. My two brothers only live about 3 hours away (not sure how many miles that is), but still it is not next door. We were all born in northern Ohio, but we all moved south. I do love to see them when I can and we stay in touch. But, I do miss being around them. And, I, too, am thankful for them. We are all up there in years, so I appreciate what time we do have together. So, I identify with what you shared here. It was beautiful!! Thank you so much!! Sue
