Family

So like every day family (at least every family that tells the truth)  we have problems.  The past few years have been a bit rocky for mine.  However, recently we have been closer and I couldn't be happier.  

These past few weeks when my family has been together we finally got the coveted photo for my mom.  A photo of all her grandchildren.

Another thing about my family that has made me feel better is my nieces.  They made me an aunt for the very first time and will always have a special place in my heart.  My now husband met my family for the first time when my niece Molly turned 1.  In 3 days she will be 13.  Scary.  And it makes me feel very old.  :)  Well one night we were hanging out and she posted this on facebook.  Something so simple that just made my week.  Cheesy, right?  

Well today (for me) is about family.  I'm thinking about what we have and not what we have gone through. Trying not to feed into the drama (which is VERY hard having 2 sisters.)

Have a great day lovies!
