This Christmas is a particularly wonderful one for my husband and me. Both of our children are happy! If you're a parent, you understand what I'm saying. Being a parent doesn't stop when the children turn 18!
Steve, our son, has his own business in Dallas which is thriving. He and Marie are parents of our three wonderful grandchildren, Isaac, Eric and Emily. They were here last weekend for Darwin's big birthday dinner, along with Paula and her new husband, Jeff. I have never felt so blessed as I did looking around the table that night.
Paula and Jeff got married December 8, and are thriving and happy. Yesterday we spent Christmas afternoon at his aunt's home with his sister, his mother, and his aunt. We had a wonderful time. Jeff is a delight. We are thrilled to have him as part of our family, and thrilled that Paula is part of his family.
We look forward to this new year with expectation and joy, thankful that we are both healthy (for now) and productive.
I hope your Christmas was wonderful, and pray that your new year will bring many joys. If there are problems and sorrows, which there always are, I pray that you will be given the strength and grace to triumph.
Let's keep reading.
