Christmas

Weighing heavy on my heart tonight, you are.........

Last night after Christmas mass a Santa walked in to the church up to baby Jesus. Santa removed his hat and kneeled before him, he quietly and gently layed a blanket over the baby in the manger. I loved that! We were simply, quietly, and humbly reminded why we celebrate this day! I can only imagine what a beautiful celebration you must have had today. Love you Daryn!

Christmas Day

Daryn, I suppose you are having a grand celebration with Jesus today on His birthday!!! Are the angels just singing and praising with the most heavenly voices? Christmas day for us is still so hard when you should be here with us, your family. You are missed so much Daryn by everyone. We just have to trust and believe that you are right where you are supposed to be and we will see you again. I love you sweetheart. Ask Jesus to bless us at our Christmas party tomorrow and let us feel you with us. I have a Christmas eve memory of you that I cherish honey. It was late after our Christmas party, everyone had left but your family. You were sitting at the kitchen counter with your pretty tan coat on, looking so very beautiful, just content and happy to be there and in no real hurry to leave. I was loving you so much in that moment. Thank you for giving me that memory. Merry Christmas blondie.

The Christmas Tree

I talked to Aunt Pat today. I called her when she was decorating her Christmas tree and she was crying. And I have been praying for all those people in the world who are crying while they decorate their tree. Taiylor and Alec are coming Saturday to help us decorate our tree. Taiylor asked if we could put up the big tree again. It hasn't been up since Daryn celebrated Christmas with us four years ago. So we will decorate it together, remembering in our hearts that last Christmas with her. She had a beautiful red dress on. She was just one of the kids running around, having a great time. Oh how I didn't know how perfect my life was, my kids all home, healthy and happy. Never again will it be the same. Never again till we are all together in heaven for Christmas. So Daryn watch over us all as we decorate our Christmas trees and help us know that you are safe and loved and held by Christ our Savior forever. Love you my Christmas Angel.
