Bless my husband Lord for his stable presence in my life.  Thank you for placing him at my side to do this journey.  

We are safely in St Louis, actually just south of St Louis in Pacific Missouri.  St Louis is where my family is originally from. I was born here years ago.  Coming to this weekend to celebrate the life of my Aunt is bringing together the cousins that have been close from birth.  We are those 'stair step' cousins; we are all two years apart, well almost all of us.  My youngest brother arrived 11 years later, so he broke the cycle you might  say.   But being here has brought back even more memories, good memories.  

Looking around the room last night you saw tears and heard laughter; you felt pain and you were comforted with love. Generations of family and friends came through sharing past memories.    Today will be a service in my Aunt's honor followed by her burial. I am looking forward to the family time that will come after all of this. With my Aunt's family,  her daughters, the grandchildren and the great grandchildren...it is amazing how we extend out in our lives to touch others.

May His peace be with you.

Laurie

Stay tuned for a look in a few weeks.  This piece is painted with Holbein Duo Oils on Canvas and it is large at 3 ft by 4 ft.  I would love to paint for you...so contact me for your own Pace Signature Original. The Thought:  Our youngest daughter is still very ill.   I am pumping her full of fruit and juices, mucinex and tylenol etc but it is not a positive thing right now. Does not look like we will make my older daughter's house for Thanksgiving.  I am sad because there will be new family to be attending along with everyone that has NOT been together since the dea
