Christmas Day 2020

The picture says it all- Home. This year marks one of our first times being in our actual home at Christmas. Michigan is usually our destination, but this year is different. However, in all things give thanks. Thanks for a warm home, thanks for our family, and thanks for the gift of Jesus.

Walking in the woods on a brisk cold winter day is another reason for giving thanks. The creek, partially frozen, provides beauty. Thank you, God, for another day to live and breathe.

And then, my father– This, picture, taken last year, reminds me of what I will keep hoping for this year. I am hoping and praying for the day when he can freely enter and exit Waterford. We can take him out to Bob Evans, Burger King, or wherever he wants to go! The day is coming! We will rejoice!
