A Big Sister alters her wedding – and all the other things she’s grateful for

In The Smoky Mountain News recently was this story by Big Sister Holly Kays about all that she loves right now.

She had originally planned a huge wedding with her Little Sister as a bridesmaid, but it didn’t go down like she planned. Only parents and siblings attended the wedding.

But Holly is grateful for so much. Find out why in her beautifully written, first-person account of what she’s grateful for.
