Hello to all. Thank you for your great kindness. This photo encompasses some of what has been happening. My sister passed away 10 years ago Dec. 13. My brother lost his life in a motorcycle accident 6 months later. This statue is at the cemetery where they are at rest. I took this wreath there on the 13th. The animals are all symbolic of something or someone in our family. Things are still not well but there is a bit of hope today. Someone who was lost to us may be returning but there will still be some very big challenges ahead. Sadly a joyous time will be quite somber. We will still celebrate the birth of our Saviour, our greatest gift, perhaps a bit more quietly this year. I have been dropping in from time to time. Lots of hours worrying so a need to take my mind to other places. Your work is wonderful as always. I am loving seeing the children and grandchildren as you get ready for the holidays. God bless you all. Thank you again.
