It is important to remember the true meaning of Christmas. The birth of the Christ Child has given hope to people all over the world. It is a joyous celebration.
Santa plowed my driveway this morning. Who else could it be? Does Santa have a red truck with a snow plow?
There are lots of stories about kindness at Christmas. People helping other people. There is the story of an Iowa woman who died of cancer several years ago leaving behind a loving husband and two children. She wrote a letter to be opened in the future and gave it to a friend. The “condition” was that it would be opened upon the eminent re-marriage of her husband (which is this case happens to be around Christmas). The letter was addressed to the Make A Wish Foundation. The letter requested that her husband’s new wife get a weekend at a spa and be totally pampered before the “wife to be” took on the role of mother and wife. She knew her husband would chose a future partner wisely and she wanted the new family member to be welcomed in a special way. Make A Wish not only arranged the spa but sent the whole family to Disney. The deceased Mom got to welcome the new lady to the family beyond her expectations. It was indeed a joyous celebration. Rest in Peace Mom!
Santa has been spotted in the area.
Merry Christmas to all!
Love,
Dad
