A TRIBUTE TO MY FAMILY
If there was ever a time of year that brings memories of family into focus, it is the holiday season. The following acrostic poem, pretty much conveys my summary of feelings:
F A M I L Y
F=FUN to be around! FULL of crazy actions that challenge the patience, but make you love them, anyway!
A=AMAZING tolerance. They usually know when I need a hug, a smile, or a “kick in the pants”!
M=MAKING the MILESTONES in my life more meaningful. No one wants to celebrate or cry alone, and my family has always been there.
I=INTERESTING people! They are each such unique INDIVIDUALS that help me see and experience the world through different eyes.
L=LOVING souls. They take the time to LISTEN to me……what an important validation of my worth.
Y=YOU are the reason for my existence, and the joy in my life each day!!
