Christmas is coming...

I'm still not sure I can get used to doing a blog! It would be nice to have a camera so I could add some pictures to make it a litle more exciting, but I forgot to put that on my Christmas list, so I don't think it will happen. For now, I guess I'll just write.

This Christmas feels a little different than before. This is my first Christmas without my mom. I am so thankful that I have precious memories of many happy Christmases with my mom. Momma enjoyed being with family on Christmas and she always loved telling about Christmas was when she was growing up! She liked to see lights and hear the music and she especially loved all the holiday treats! Cookies were her favorite! One year Momma went with us to the Cincinnati Zoo for their Christmas light festival and Santa was there. We have laughed so much over how Momma flirted with Santa and he flirted right back with her! I miss her so much this Christmas.

I have a dear friend who recently lost her mom and another friend who called today to say his mom only has a matter of time. My heart goes out to them.

On a brighter note, I'm truly thankful that Jesus is the reason for the season! He is worthy of all our praise!
