If anything would ever happen to one of us... We want our kids to know where our "yellow boots" are. They are in the garage, along with 300 other things, on a shelve... you will find them neatly wrapped in a box ready for our next round of pictures. If for some reason we aren't there for the party, we expect our children to carry on the tradition. There are eight of you and only three pairs of boots. We suggest that you leave them in the box and each year when you get together for your Christmas party you bring out the box. Open it carefully, and set the boots with you for the group picture - you see we will always be with you, wherever you go whatever you do... there is no escaping our love for you and our laughter at ourselves. Even when we are gone from this place, we pray that you will continue to love each other and get together when you can. We believe that when you open that box of boots ... you will hear our laughter, and feel how much you are loved! And, if you accidentally tip the boots over, don't worry, all that will come out is the millions and millions (sorry, not dollars!) of prayers that we have said for you through the years. Savor yourselves in all those prayers and love, laugh a little, and then pack them up and put them on the shelve until the next time!
