as i FINALLY packed up christmas today, i was reminded of another memory of last january (not an exciting one, but one none the less) ...
when i packed up christmas last year, i was also packing for our move. and packing for our move meant 'getting rid of stuff.' we had ('had' being the key word) so many christmas decorations that i needed to downsize. why? because there was no way we would have enough room in our little apartment in california for so much. haha, where was my faith? God didn't provide us with a teeny apartment, he blessed us with a HOUSE. let me tell you, i missed some of that christmas stuff i got rid of. these are the moments that make pack rat's say, "i told you we'd need it." need?, no. but it would have been nice to have just a couple things. oh well. christmas came and went just the same and it really didn't matter how, or even if, the house was decorated. JESUS is here and that's all that matters!
hugs to you all!

I never noticed anything missing. I guess it's because your smiles and your love are so bright, they outshine everything material!
I can't WAIT to see you again. March, right?
Love, Nancy
