remembrance.

each year, easter week is filled with remembrance, mourning, celebration, and thanksgiving. this year, ours was more so than ever. we remembered jesus' life, death, and resurrection, certainly. we carried on many traditions for kj's sake, certainly. we counted our blessings as we gathered with family, certainly.

but on top of all this, we added an opportunity to spend final, precious hours with nj's aunt. and as we eventually mourned her death on sunday afternoon, we also celebrated the goodness of her life, we marveled at what she had overcome in her life, and we gave great thanks for her life and the many she touched. we will continue this remembrance this week and in the many weeks to come.

we are so thankful for the legacy that she has left in the family and friends that were changed by her kindness. thank you, sh, for sharing your life with us. we will miss you, certainly.
