Thoughtful Gift

My youngest brother married his sweetheart

this weekend. Prior to the ceremony my sister

gave each one of us three siblings

a very thoughtful gift. 

She gave each one of us a little blue Teddy Bear.

Earlier this year, our brother Tim was cruelly taken

from us. We have had quite a difficult year 

dealing with the separation and the legal system.

Both our parents had also passed away some years back
 - so we siblings were all we had. The sibling relationship

is one that lasts a lifetime.

My sister took some of my brother's shirts and had

a friend make these Teddy Bears. She found ribbons

with the color of the Irish flag. 
This sweet little Teddy Bear now has a home in
the Blue Room .

What a sweet gift to memorialize our love for each

other and for our brother.  

Our Teddy Bear - Tim

And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
 ⁴⁰And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:39-40
