I am not quite sure what the reason is, but I am truly excited about Christmas this year. I don't care what I get for gifts, I do care what others think about what I give them, and I am just truly thankful for the time I will have with family.
Maybe it's because I am not sure how many Christmases I have left with my dad and my inlaws. Nothing in life is guaranteed. So, enjoy it all to the fullest and thank God for every moment!!!
My kids are older and truly understand and appreciate the TRUE reason behind the season. Don't get me wrong...they still love the gifts, but I truly believe they know that the true joy is in giving and not in receiving.
My wish for all of my blogger friends is that you are truly blessed during this holiday season. I know I don't have a huge following as far as readers are concerned...but that's ok. Those of you who read...MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
Hugs
Laurie
