Almost Christmas!

December the 4th already! I'm so looking forward to seeing Aubrey and Adam! Time is slipping by and disappearing behind me. I stay so busy, but anybody can stay busy, right? It's not about that, and I sometimes, no, strike that - USUALLY forget that it's really about the people in my life and not about the things that need doing.

Layne, I love you! You are everything that's constant and real for me in this world.

Mom, I love you! Thank you for teaching me to love music and art and beauty! Thank you for teaching me to work hard and keep trying even when the struggles are bigger than me.

Tim, Sonia, Ryan, Staci, Katrina, Bill, Shayna, Trevor, Aubrey and Adam, I love you!! I pray for you every time I think of you - which is several times a day. I hope that your struggles bring you closer to each other and teach you to trust God with all your hearts!

Alissa, McKenzie, Sam, Braxton, Taft, Trystn, LJ, Emily, and Preston, I love you! You are amazing in you potential and filled with all the best, most glorious gifts of Heaven! I can't wait to see who you will become!

May you all have the most wonderful Christ - mas celebration ever!!

  1. Beautiful! This reminds me... I recently was complimented on my sight-reading as I played with the orchestra. I replied without thinking, "Thank my piano teacher". Than I thought and that's Grandma and I can thank her! You three have made a big difference in our lives and have been a good example of so many principles. It's such a gift to have you in our lives regularly!!
