All I Want For Christmas

…..is my mommy back.

Christmas is nearly a week away, goodness gracious. I had visions of being on top of everything, apparently God had a different plan. Even though my cards are not addressed and ready to go, and my shopping is barely started and we are behind on our advent reading, I do feel that I have been given the greatest Christmas gift and birthday gift ever.

In the nightmare we entered on Sunday, God has never left our side. In fact, I believe He was really watching out for mom in so many ways.

Typically my mom walks the dog, alone. On Sunday, she had my sister and my two precious children. Although a horrible thing for them to witness, they were able to get help for my mom, they are God’s angels in my eyes.

Had mom not had this fall, perhaps we would have never found out about the aneurisms in mom’s brain. If this fall and bleeding didn’t take her life, these surely would have. I give all praise and glory to God for the “heads up”.

It is a true blessing that perhaps my mom will be home for Christmas, even though the road ahead is not going to be an easy one, it will be nice to have mom home. These few days without her home have been so lonely and awful.

I pray that God’s will is for our family to be together for many, many more Christmas’s to come.

Please, make sure your family knows how special they are to you.

Merry Christmas to you and your families.
