I prayed she would be able to attend Christmas with our family which was five days away. I wanted one more Christmas with my precious mother. She was feeling very good that Christmas day, we had a great Christmas get together with lots of fond memories and pictures. She passed away three days later. I'm so thankful for the blessing of our last Christmas.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10184420479718224743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811895298125323943.post-55779491270369371542015-10-30T14:11:19.835-04:002015-10-30T14:11:19.835-04:00We have the simplest yet most profound blessings a...We have the simplest yet most profound blessings at Christmas. All of our family together in harmony. During the year that can be easy to take for granted.

I'm so thankful to those who showed up with gift cards to help with gifts and also food - hubby was the one who cooked our holidays meals and when friends found that out they brought us our Christmas meal.
