To that moment that Visits and selfies with these two beautiful girls made my day Don’t ever take anything for granted, grandparents are everything and this woman right here was the strongest woman I know and still always smiling down on us

Feeling thankful for so much Christmas brings on so many mixed emotions for us all. The hustle and bustle of buying presents, wrapping presents, Christmas parties, last minute shopping, the list goes on and on. I even find myself getting wrapped up in the stressful part that I sometimes put aside the true meaning of Christmas.... The real joy and blessing of this holiday goes back to the real meaning of Christmas. Celebrating what it truly means to be thankful. Be thankful for the birth of Jesus, and that it gives us so much more hope then not having hope. Be thankful that we live in this country when so many live in country's that face so many other hardships. Be thankful for beautiful scenery like the picture below, when others don't choose to see the beauty in the micro moments. Be thankful that we have a roof over our head when so many do not. Be thankful that we have food to eat when so many people are hungry. Be thankful that you can go out and buy gifts for others when many cant even do that. Be thankful that you have relationships with family and friends when many are broken and apart. This Christmas, go out and give, go out and bless someone who may not otherwise be blessed. You will be blessed 1000 times over by giving them receiving. Go out and bless others and be open to forgiveness, to peace and to fellowships of others
