Hope

As Christmas draws near, we begin our preparations, baking, decorating, shopping and listening to music to begin another year of Christmas spirit. One of our first steps in decorating is putting up the Christmas lights and ours are almost ready. In the meantime, there is one special light, we shouldn't forget. The first light of Christmas.
 

Hope.


Be well friends!

This is beautiful, Andrea. And a great reminder of what Christmas is really about.

Hope your holiday was good. I know it was your first without Gwen. I hope both you and son took comfort in memories you have of her from past Thanksgivings.
Blessings, Misha

That was beautiful. I was feeling down yesterday and this post did me a lot of good.
