Journey Day 258

I love going home for spring break because I get the opportunity to have such awesome conversations with my family. This morning I was talking with my parents and my mom was telling me this story about my six year old brother. She said that her and my dad were having an argument and he started crying all of the sudden. They quieted him down a little bit and asked him what happened. He said, "I'm scared you and daddy are going to get divorced and I've been thinking about who I want to live with and I can't decide who I'm going to live with!!" And my awesome and loving parents calmed him down and explained that they loved each other very much, and they were never never going to get divorced so he didn't have to worry about it. And while it was an adorable story and made me giggle it got me thinking. I am so very blessed. I never ever had to worry about my parents not being together. They always made sure I knew they loved each other and that they loved me. I had two awesome role models for what a marriage is supposed to look like and I always felt secure at home. It was always a safe haven for me and I know that is an incredible blessing! I know that as my little brother grows older he'll see the love my parents share and he too will feel safe, secure and extremely loved!
