We are Wealthy in what is Important

After a long weekend, Whit is on the mend.  Friday she had emergency gall bladder surgery.  Saturday there were post surgery complications.  Watching a child in such intense pain is very difficult.  Add on the worry of her pregnancy, makes it twice as hard.  What was lovely to watch was the outpouring of love.  Whitney's sweet husband, Jason, never left her side.  Whitney also has a huge support group which includes aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.  Her brothers and sisters love and rally around with prayers, visits and good wishes.  Her seven little nephews want their Aunt Whitney to be well again.  They love her so much.  Whitney has a special relationship with her sister/twin/cousin, Marta.  Marta was at the hospital to make Whitney feel well with her loves, hugs and funny stories.  Jim and I are  grateful for a close family who are always there for one another.  We are so grateful for Whitney's recovery, and continue to be happy for children and other family member's generosity and love.  It doesn't matter what is going on in this world, family and friends are what is most important.  We have an abundance of both, and so as we go into this new year consider ourselves very wealthy in what is most dear to us.  Happy New Year.
