Family Handshake

The reason, I have titled this blog, family handshake, is because that is a favorite memory of mine as a kid. Growing up, we were always consistent at having a nightly family prayer. And after the prayer, we would do our family handshake. We would put the tip of our fingers together, curl them, and move our hands up and down and count the members of our family. Even when someone wasn't there, we would count them. When we had guests, we would have them join our handshake, and we would count them. I hope everyone in our families and everyone who enters our homes will know that they count and are loved.
