Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!  I am just very thankful this year to have my family around me, and I'm thankful we are all healthy and happy.  My heart goes out to friends today who are struggling.  I hope that they will find peace on this day and feel God's love. 

I'm thankful for my friends- who are the very best friends a person could ask for.  What a blessing to know that time and distance don't diminish true friendship. 

I'm very thankful we have a warm home, food to eat, and clothes to wear! I am thankful for my sweet husband who works very hard to provide for us.   

And as silly as this may sound I am thankful for Mazie, Coco, and Arthur for giving us unconditional love, warmth, and hours of entertainment. 

I hope you all take time today to count your blessings!  And remember what the true meaning of Christmas is.  I imagine that Mary was counting her blessings when her sweet baby boy was born into this world.
