...seems to be a little sweeter than others in the past. Maybe it's because for the past 6 months Bryan and I and my family, have had to come to grips and focus on what really matters most: God, Jesus Christ, and each other. When my sister was first diagnosed with Leukemia, it changed a lot of things and changed them drastically. In my family, everyone will more than likely be getting the gifts they wanted from the stores this year, but I have to say that one of the best gifts is knowing that more than likely, no one will be in the hospital and that everyone will be home.
Home to enjoy homemade food, not takeout. Home to enjoy conversation, not telephone calls. Home to enjoy movies- together, not separately. Home where the only pain that will be felt is that from laughing so hard your sides hurt. HOME. I am grateful for the peace the word "Home" brings. I am so grateful for my family: my loving and kind husband, our fun and active little boy, my parents and sisters, and all of my inlaws. They make up what I call HOME everyday.
Regardless of the miles, states, and walls that may separate us. This year we will truly be "Home for Christmas."
