CHRISTMAS WISHES
As Christmas approaches I am feeling a little inadequate. Money is short
this year. Em is feeling badly about that and I don't know what to tell her. I know that Christmas isn't about gifts, money, trees, etc. Christmas is about the birthday of our Savior Jesus Christ. The greatest gift that the world has ever been given.
My Christmas wishes are, health and happiness for my children, husband, and I. I want to share the love of my personal Savior with my family and friends. I have so much love to give. My mom accused me one time of wishing that I could take in every stray that I found. Animals,
People, it doesn't matter. That is pretty much the truth.
I have done plenty of that since we moved to the Boise area. Probably to the detriment of the family, mostly financially, because those people that stayed here with us never paid much in rent or groceries. It is a little bit tough when you have 3 or 4 extra's in the house at a time and they didn't help out much. (So much for my rantings) That isn't what I started out wanting to put in this blog.
Matthew our oldest is going to be home on the 13th thru the 19th or 20th. We'll have our Christmas with him on the 18th. I am really looking forward to having him home for a few days. I talked to my mother on the phone the other day. If the weather stays good they will try to come over to Boise for Christmas. My Brother and his family are coming over to spend some time with her family for the holiday, and some with us also, of course. Some good friends from Jerome are going to come over and spend Christmas with us also. That is what Christmas is all about.......Family, Friends, Children, what more do I need.
