This weeks I Heart Faces theme is family. Family is definitely one of the most important things to me, and this picture is capturing such a moment of realization for me. I was 18 at the time, and just weeks before I had accepted Christ into my life. Here we were celebrating my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary (Grandmom is in the white dress, of course). This is a picture showing complete joy and fellowship between mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts and nieces. This is a moment of complete joy. That weekend I flew up to Delaware to celebrate this occasion with my family. And that was the first weekend that I understood what loving a family as a follower of Christ feels like. Wow, talk about love! :) And now, everytime I hear "We are Family" I think of this special memory. And I look forward to us joining together again one day soon to share another memory as such.
