A Family United...

Yesterday we had the wonderful privilege of seeing my Aunt Carolyn re-married. Her husband passed away suddenly 2.5 years ago in a tragic farm accident. She was left a widow with 4 children to raise on her own. We have seen her heart ache, her struggles, and her loss. She always told us that she didn't think that she could or would ever remarry. Little did she know that 2.5 years later through other very tragic circumstances a man would ask her to marry him. Larry, had lost his wife 3 months ago, and was left to raise 5 children on his own. What a better combination than for the 2 of them to fall in love and get married. I was an awesome sight to see these 2 broken hearted adults join together and now have tears of joy run down their face. Now they are a family with 9 children! It just amazed me how well they were getting along, how happy they were for the parent. Now this family will become united and join together as one union. It was just a wonderful occasion. To know that my aunt won't have to live the rest of her life alone, to know that my cousins won't have to grow up without a father figure in their life. To know that Larry's children will have a mother figure, and to know that Larry can be happy and in love again. I wish them all the best as the unite together and build a life that will be intertwined as one family unit!
