🐴 🌾🤍 ✝️ My fife and Ranch life are intertwined ✝️🤍🌾🐴

As I am reading Smile‑Mile Inheritance on YouTube, we have come to a section of the fence‑line trek that is filled with Thomas and Ella memories of family outings in Portland when they were young. This portion of the Trilogy is totally from our own family experiences and outings in Portland, Oregon with our grandchildren 🌲🚗. Fond memories for sure.

I trust each of you have your own family‑outing memories. Hopefully your memory is jogged a bit as you read about Thomas and Ella’s memories. Families are a vital part of our Heavenly Father’s plan ✨👨‍👩‍👧‍👦, and although not all family memories are happy ones, they are learning experiences for each of us. I can say this with heartfelt assurance, because I do come from an abusive childhood, and have chosen to learn from that experience and became a chain breaker for our family ✝️🪢. Heavenly Father and Jesus helped me learn that my sons were a positive learning ground 🌿💛.

May we each go forth striving to build strong and happy relationships with each member of our families 🤍🏡. Even as Thomas and Ella are striving to do. I know that Jesus loves you ✝️. I know that God, our Heavenly Father, loves you 🌟. And I know we are sisters and brothers in the Gospel. Take care, and remember… you are loved 🤍🌾.

Love hugs… Grama Jean 🤗💛
