- December is almost here and it is one month now
- until another Christmas eve will be here
- Miss Ashley and I have done some decorating
- it is very bitter-sweet- and we will try it invent some new traditions
- she did the tree in silver and blue and some purple
- and then we found this and that from other years to add
- we have papa David's favorite hamburger and fries salt and pepper shakers
- under the tree - they are shaped like a burger and fries
- we did a little window decorating in the kitchen
- so there is a light in the window-
- she found a decoration a friend made a couple of years ago
- it is a bulb with a feather in it so she picked it out for a decoration
- for remembering papa---(thanks Terrie)
- last year we missed Christmas as it was the sick month and
- the beginning of cancer as we knew it for David-
- it was the month
- when we found out how short
- and special life really is----and although we missed Christmas
- Christmas did not miss us because
- the babe in the manger came and became
- the beginning of eternity for all of us..and the reason for for the season
- the stars shine for us telling us to remember the King who gave
- us life and love and joy and faith in place of silver and gold
- I am hoping that Ashley is done decorating now or we will
- have to move out as there will be no room at this inn for us--LOL
- take care and share some joy and faith this year

My Christmas will also be hard this year. We lost my mom to a brain tumor in July, just diagnosed in June. It was too soon, too fast, we weren't ready for mom to go, although she was 85 and ready to go to heaven whenever Jesus came for her. I keep thinking I should call her to ask her something about the Thanksgiving plans, but she is thanking God in person! How wonderful for our loved ones that they can celebrate with Jesus in heaven! But we sure miss them, don't we. I'll be thinking of you during this month long holiday season.....sending hugs and asking blessings on you.
