You... my family

I have always been grateful for the amazing gift I was given...
You... my family.
Two parents, crazy in love.
Two strong, assertive sisters.
Uncles and aunts who know how to laugh.
Grandparents who know how the world works.
Only recently have I really known how rare a gift it is:
Solid family.
It's a gift I hope to give my children.
As comforting as chicken soup,
As forgiving as a safety net,
As rich as history itself.
