We spent the weekend with David's family in Arkansas, his grandfather passed away early Monday morning. I am always blessed because the family I grew up with but I always seem to long to be with them after spending time with the Romans' side.
I have come to appriciate my family more and more. I love that to them we must seem boring. I love that I don't go years without seeing my brother and cousins. I even love the fact that Mim's has nothing better to do than sit around upset that we didn't think to call her that day. We all have it so easy and I wouldn't trade places with them ever.
I won't go into detail (unless you ask) but I pity a family that is ok being strangers. I have even threatened to write a book about David's family......it would be GOOD.
I am glad that Dave and I got to spend time with John Michael, he and Dave have so much in common but grew up thinking the other had it so much better. Keep them in your prayers, pray they continue to get to know each other. Having a brother is cool and they really need each other more than they may think.
Also, Dave is driving back alone for the funeral Wednesday and will be there until Friday, keep him in your prayers that God gives him a safe trip and an open heart while spending time with his father.
