This Sabbath day is special for us — more than the usual January adjustment for many. As our Cannon Family looks back on Christmas (and I alone ... perhaps not really alone ... finish celebrating by our tree with music, memories, and a leftover MC Mindy Mint), we feel very blessed.
Let me share my 6am thoughts (often numbers-oriented):
There are six of us here ... as mortals on earth today, the sixth of January. Our five children & I. Kay, beloved mother of five, mother-in-law of five, grandmother of 23, and my one & only, passed on to continue her life’s work as our number-one missionary and teacher as well.
A family of seven — with spouses, we are twelve. Two powerful numbers to reckon with! One forever family.
Kay & I are one in purpose and in love; adding our five children makes six of us. Adding our families and more generations to come, there is no end in sight.
All one in purpose ... with love.
Here on the sixth day of the year.
