Beautiful visitor



Sometimes beauty seeps into your life
A beautiful person that brings joy
Someone that makes life stand still
that makes the sun shine...


This past week, we have been touched by that beauty
in the person of my sister, Hanna.


Tears fall now that she has gone.





But the joy remains, in talks about her, in laughter, in memories...
A best friend, a sister, an aunt.





And symbols of hope right over our roof....

Very close to tears! So happy you have the joy of having a beautiful sister. I get to meet mine (half) for the first time in a month, as well as a brother...so excited to have siblings after being an only child my whole life!

Love the rainbow and the joy spilled in your lives from your sister.

Delighted to meet you today. I hope you don't mind if I splash around a bit to get to know you. This looks like a delightful place to slip off my shoes and get soaked in His goodness.

Splashin,
Sara
