ok, so this year more than ever i want a white christmas. its probably due to the fact that we've been getting a lot of snow early this season. yesterday though when the ground was brown and muddy i was getting sad, but this morning i woke up to a nice blanket of white! that makes me very happy. and more snow is predicted so there is a good chance for a white christmas this year thats not just a dusting of white. there had to have been 4 inches at my house this morning and thankfully my dad cleaned my car off for me so that i could get to work on time. :) i have such a great dad! and actually today is his birthday! we celebrated last night though.
well, half way thru my last week of work before a christmas break. i'm getting very excited for christmas!! i can't explain what is different for me this year, but there is a definite joy in my heart this season. actually, ever since a conversation with an old friend i have seemed to have a bit more joy in my heart. i've been trying hard to appreciate every day and each moment in it, and to let God's joy be in my heart. i think thats part of this change in my spirit that i've been feeling. i don't know, but there's no better time than christmas to be joyful and to allow the beauty of the snow and this season to fill my heart.
there really is no place like home for the holidays and this year i am thankful again to be able to be with my family.
