Friends and Family, Far and Near

We are so grateful for the friends and family we got to see over Christmas Break.  As we traversed the Midwest, back and forth and through the Chicagoland area, I thought, "Well, it could be worse" which, of course, indeed it could be!  Then, I thought to myself (not or the first time) that even though we moved only two hours away, it was still indeed a sacrifice.  We had to uproot everything as if we had moved overseas.

But the reality was that is was also a sacrifice for not only for us and the children that moved with us, but for the family and friends we left.  We miss those family and miss those friends! (We love our new ones, here in Elkhart, but miss the others, too.)

So, we are grateful for the visits we've made, visits made to us, and for technology, and all that comes with it, so we can continue to connect.  [Disclaimer - cyber baby snuggles are not the same.]

Love,
The Andersons
