We Have Heard Them All

We have been through a lot of trying times over the years. We have been so extraordinarily lucky to have friends and family there with us every step of the way. Every time we have faced another (pick one of the following); "road block", "bump in the road", "mountain to climb", "challenge to face", those friends and family have flooded our mail box, voice mails and inboxes with words of support and encouragement.

It has been this support that has helped to get us through. Although this most recent setback is smaller in comparison to some of our others, the support has been equally unwavering. This got us thinking about all the different things that people have said to us over the years. Here are some of the most common;

  • "Everything happens for a reason."
  • "It is all part of Gods plan."
  • "You will figure it out."
  • "That which does not kill you can only make you stronger."
  • "It will all work out in the end."
  • "You have to think positively."

These are all great, but our favorite is simple;

"We are thinking of you and praying for you."

That one means the most to us. Thank you all our friends, family, and supporters. We know we have the strength to get through the trying times because of this unwavering support!
