Thankful for the Best Gifts, Christmas with Family, & Crystal Forests

Day 2,282

Growth:

Gifts of time, presence, love, & shared experiences trump “stuff” every single time.

Appreciation:

Time with family, the best way to spend Christmas Day, no question. As each evening brings Dominic’s college journey one step closer I’m enjoying each moment together more and more. I’m sure we’ll have times with the four of us for years to come, but they will be slightly changed and fewer and far between. The Christmas gift of tonight was perfect.

Presence:

Our drive today provided views I’ve never quite seen the same way as before. The snow and ice clung to the trees and the sun reflected off in just the right way. The entire scene glittered like a crystal forest!

Thanks!!!
