I love my FAMILY.
I know this isn't the usual thing for me to write about, but for some reason I just want to say it.
First and definitely foremost, I love my wife. She is wonderful and doesn't realize her strength and joy she gives me. She is a great mom to our kids. Thank you. My kids- you are wonderful. I love each one of them totally and completely.
I love my brother and sisters. Those of you who are struggling now, know you are in my prayers and I do love you. You made my life miserable when I was young but also brought so much joy. I love the memories. Lulu, we really should have caught that bluegill.
I am grateful to say that I love my extended family.
Finally, my parents. Thank you for being incredible examples. I pray that one day my family can be at least a shadow of what you guys have. You are great examples of what a patriarch and matriarch should be. Thank you for leading and saying "do as I do."
I know we all have our faults, but some reason right now I don't see them. I just see a wonderful (large and crazy) family. I love you guys.
This might be my only sappy post. Enjoy it.

I did enjoy it. It is so nice when you open up and show a part of your heart. I couldn't agree with you more. I know there are some faults in the family, but I don't see them. I am proud of the man you have become. I can't imagine not being an eternal family, it would be unbearable. Love just doesn't cover my feelings for all of you. But know I do love you.
Yeah, I'm sitting here at work crying my eyes out! Good thing we don't have customers, eh? Thank you for a sweet and wonderful post. I love you, too, Jim.
Ahh Jimmy, You made me smile! Thanks, I needed that. You are the best! I love you!
