i like the fact that even though my grandma has no idea who it is when she answers the phone she says "merry christmas" as soon as she picks up. and even though she lost my grandpa a little over a year ago she is not to sad sitting alone in her house right now and she really wants to make sure that we are all doing alright and that we are happy. i learn from her - from her strength and love.

i like the fact that while im sitting here typing i can hear sarah humming miles to sleep down the hall.

i like the fact that a christmas with not so many presents really does turn out to be the best christmas of all..

merry christmas guys!

...we are blessed.
