The sun is shining this morning
although it is cold here in New York!
I am looking forward to this Christmas weekend
and spending time with our family and good friends.
We will be seeing our special little girls on Christmas Eve.
They are so excited as they wait to see what Santa will bring.
Thanks to all for your kind and encouraging words.
I am filled with gratitude for my many blessings and
appreciate the reminder to be present in the moment
and plan on making many new happy memories!
Starting with making some Christmas cookies...
I'm off to the grocery store for more sprinkles!
"May your holidays be filled with reasons to be thankful.
Having loved and having been loved
is perhaps the most wondrous reason of all."
These words are from a newsletter put out by Hospice of the Valley
and were sent to me by Cathie...a thoughtful and kind follower of 52 FLEA.
Love to you all!

The weather is finally feeling more Christmassy around here, too. It's so hard to believe that it's just days away, isn't it?!
ReplyDeleteI hope your time spent with loved ones and good friends is filled with bountiful joy. ;)
Merry Christmas, Laura!
