Lucky...The Silver Lining #FamilyMatters

Through all the madness and through thick and thin I can't be lucky enough for my, well what most people would say would be their "Out-Laws." Well, I can't quite say that. For as long as I can remember, they have been an extension of my "blood" family. 

From the years when I first met my amazing bride through present they have seen it all, from the very worst of me, to the best, and everything in between! (and they still stand beside me) I can still recall all the dinners at their house when welcomed me in, as I was out here in CA, with no family here! It was truly awesome. 

I am truly lucky, cause not only did I get the girl, but I got the loving, compassionate family with it as well! 

Through our situation right now, Allyn, aka Wonder Woman, has been here every step of the way, to selflessly help both Danielle and I with the daily processes of life, and I don't know what we would do without her! I think the thing I struggle with the most, is sometimes we are just tired, spent, and she just hangs in, and loves us where we are at. No judging or comments, (most of the time) she is so giving of herself. 

At the end of the day, she is an incredible example of who I can hope to be when my kids, or family is in need in the future! 

Thank you Mimi & Grandpa... You guys are truly "Super Heroes!' Thank you for making such and incredible impact on my children! I know they will always cherish you! You guys make them a priority, and it shows. You guys make the time and are at all their performances, games, events and so much more! In case you wondered if it was noticed, or appreciated! YES... 

I love you guys, and thank you for being you!
