A Jon Post<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n As I was trying to decide what to write this week I started reading back over the last year and a half worth of blogs we\u2019ve put up here. I read some of the hard times in our lives, times of death, of sickness, of pain, mixed with joyous moments in our lives, times of birth, of life, of smiles. In all of those times, in all of these \u201cblogs\u201d, in all of our crying out in triumph, defeat, life and death\u2026 you are there with us.<\/p>\n When we wrote of our tears, you cried with us. You encouraged us. You stirred us on to love and good deeds<\/a>. You breathed words of life and comfort when we needed them.<\/p>\n
