Blessings

Yesterday we spent the day at Sandy and Mike's cabin in the woods.  We celebrated Christmas with them and my mom and my brother's dog who is staying with us for a week while he and his family visit with best friends in Florida.

I am feeling deeply the blessings of the season and our life.
