Twenty-two years and counting...

Twenty-two years ago today, (April 30), my husband and I purchased our home in Harrison County, Kentucky.   As Tim slept during days and worked during nights, I drove our four year old daughter and sixteen month old son to our new home each morning.  While the children played for a few hours, I moved car loads of items for our kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms.  One week later, we moved the rest of our belongings and have lived here ever since.  As I reminisce about the many seasons we have experienced during this time, I am amazed and grateful for the precious people and memories along the way.

I am thankful for the neighbors who became friends.  I am thankful for the school system that prepared our children exceptionally well for their college and career choices.  I am thankful for those in the church community who allowed us to feel welcome. I am thankful for the medical community that takes excellent care of us. I am thankful for the friendly people in the stores, restaurants and other places of business.  I am thankful for a community that cares about each other and embraces faith and family.

Thank you, Cynthiana and  Harrison County, Kentucky.  We certainly don't know where we will be in another twenty-two years, but I do know that we have been incredibly blessed to be a part of this community for over two decades...and counting.  We are thankful for all of you who have touched our lives!<3~thl
