I am so incredibly Blessed
As I stood washing dishes this evening, I look to the back of the sink and there's a cup with a tiny white flower in it.

I have a 2 sons that bring so much joy to my life. Not a day goes by that one of them doesn't bring some treasure they've found to me. A flower, a sparkly rock, an empty snail shell. I've had more flowers on the back of the sink than I can count.

We are not rich people. We live check to check. But there is something so amazing about our lives. I have a husband who is truly my best friend for going on 15 years now. I have 2 intelligent, healthy sons who amaze me on a daily basis. There is nothing more I could ask for.

People ask what I want for Christmas and I really have no answer. Everything I could possibly want, everything I need is right here with me.

I hope all of you know the same joy. Merry Christmas.

2. Sharing your joy!!
I am so glad for you! It is wonderful to realize such joy does exist in the world, yes?
I have a wonderful husband and son, my health, and a secure place to live. And I'm not starving or cold.
Happy Holidays to you and yours.....

3. I know what you mean
It's funny to think that to much of the country we are considered "poor." But I don't feel poor. We don't have much, but we do have each other. And I mean we have each other in a real way. Not in a say hi as you pass each other going out the door on your way to something else.

:hug: Share the joy! :D
