Wonderful

Wonderful... is the word that best describes our Christmas holidays this year.

Perfect? No.

But still wonderful.

I think not having things perfect makes me more thankful for the people that we were surrounded by

this year ~ treasured family and friends. There were missing places at the table at every family Christmas we had except for Clinton's immediate family. Yet, while these people were missed, it seemed as though all the rest of us loved a little more to make up for it. And I am left with a feeling of tremendous gratitude for the love that the Father continues to pour down on His children...

There's a lot of spunk in that group - from ALL of them :)
