We went home in January for my precious Aunt Petra's funeral. It was a sad occasion, of course, because we will miss her, but it was also joyous because my Mom had led her to the Lord during her last few weeks on earth. We know that we will see her again. One of the beautiful things about funerals is that you end up having a family reunion of sorts. We were able to see extended family members that we hadn't seen in years. In this photo, from left to right: Grandma (my Mom), Me, my sisters, and my babies.
