Family Gathering

the gathering of family

 

 

 

At last, my family is here. I did not realize how anxious I was about their coming until the last brother arrived, then at that moment I felt something in my let go and a massive sense of joy and peace filled the space which had been harboring a stressful anxiousness. My heart returned to feeling happiness, love, and goodness.

My family is here and with that everything else seems as it should be, perfect as is.

    What a relief for you, now that they’ve all arrived safely (albeit jet-lagged, no doubt). Have fun!

    How will you be celebrating July 4th in France? Remember that French Marquis de Lafayette helped fight in the American Revolution!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share the details of the pre-wedding celebrations. Gosh i can hardly wait to check mail in the mornings. Enjoy every moment!!!!! The matriarch is beaming, can you imagine how full her heart is.? BREATHE DEEPLY!

  6. Oh I love her engagement ring.
    So simple and beautiful! Love, love, love it!!!
    Here, the (too long a) trend, has been to rings, with tiny diamonds all over them! They probably started, to simulate vintage settings. But they don’t.
    And I am so sick of them.
    Give me simple, simple, simple any day!!!!! -happy sigh-
    Love Chelsea’s ring!!!!
    So happy you can now relax…… Do. No matter any glitches. Glitches are part of life. But ride over them. :-)))
    And a very Happy 4th of July to my fellow citizen, Corey!
