missing my family

i miss my family so much more than i thought i would. all of us living in arkansas made us closer than we ever had been. then i go and leave. i appreciate them more and more everyday. i've missed them dearly during this christmas and wish i could have seen them at least one day.

but it is okay because i live with incredible girls and god is blessing me.

i do miss watching my niece grow up as well. she is such a blessing to our family. we love her SO much.
here is a picture of her this christmas. i love this picture! how could you not love this little face?
