My People

I got this African soapstone sculpture as a gift for our family for Valentine's Day. 
I found it at a store on Capital Hill called "Massai" that sells a lot of African goods and 
had fun talking to the guy there about my love for Kenya. 
When I gave it to them that night, I told Anna, Taylor and Jason that this was symbolic for me 
because when we have celebrations like 
the beginning of Lent or Valentine's Day
 or just a regular Thursday-
 I am so grateful that I have them to celebrate with.  
I am so thankful that they are "my people" 
with whom I get to live life and dance through my days.
