Family Bonding

Family reunions can bring out the best and the worst. Last week at Jellystone Park, near Estes Park in Colorado, Theresa and I had four of our five children plus 13 grandchildren living in close proximaty in rustic cabins. There was no “worst.” Some of our children and grandchildren hadn’t met before and bonding happened quickly and easily. Our prayers were answered. We had a great time in the kid-friendly setting.

RayII and his family came from Ft. Thomas, Kentucky. Gretchen and hers came from Orlando. Theresa’s son, Fletcher came with his from Denver. His sister and hers joined us from Nampa. Amy is in France with her two children.

We’ll get back into the swing of “gain through loss” tomorrow.
