Tricia Goyer here ...Growing up my favorite movie was The Parent Trap. You know, it's the story about a young girl who goes to summer camp and meets the twin she never knew. Why? I grew up with my mom ... and later my mom and step dad. All through those years I didn't know my biological dad, and I always dreamed I had a sister out there.
Fast-forward a few years and I decide to get curious. Not only did I find my biological dad, I discovered I have four amazing sisters. Not one .... but four!
Last week one of those sisters, her husband, and her three kids visited me and we had a great vacation. I wanted to share a few pictures. I also wanted to offer hope.
--Sometimes our deepest desires are answered in ways greater than we could ever imagine.
--Even if we have "complicated" family situations, God can bring them around for His good.
--And, whether through genetics, or spiritual adoption as children of God, it's cool to discover someone in your family. We need each other!

We had a great visit! Love ya!
That goat is so cute! I get sick of the Parent Trap - it's on TV allllll the time. We even have it. But I am thrilled that you could find some missing people and pieces of your heart. That's important.
