A beautiful tribute for Father's Day...

 

A big shout out to another sister Lita, of whom my parents brought up as their own and she surprised our dad on Father's day with this amazing picture of her husband Joe and their children together, my family and lil' sister Maria and our parents at large.

Such a beautiful tribute and so well appreciated and now hanging in pride of place at our parents' home on the living room wall.

Lita has been such a blessing as she's visited, brought over her children, supported and shopped for our parents whilst they've been in lockdown in NZ in waiting for a time when they can once again travel back to Samoa freely.

But at this time all we can do is prayerfully wait and still have hope that one day soon, that day will arrive. In the meantime, this gift reminds us of how important our families are and how God brings people together to make a positive difference in our families' lives.

So lots of hugs and kisses to Lita and her family, and her eldest Mariana of whom our parents also looked after as a lil' youngin' and she still likes to visit and sleepover with them when not working part-time or studying at Uni - a real blessing to the family.

May God richly bless you Lita and your family for so many things that you do for our parents as I know that they appreciate the many blessings that you give them (even when they say not to, in wanting for you to watch over your family too). Ia faamanuia le Atua i mea uma e te faia (may God bless everything that you do...)
