most wonderful.time of the year!

Have you ever felt so overwhelmed with gratitude? These past few months I have thought on more than one occasion that I have been so blessed! I have told you how my friends have opened their home to me as well as taken me to chemo appointments. And I ha e told you of my family filling my freezers! Bit, this week has been one to remember! This past week has been full of people being so kind to me. Saturday, my sister-in-law and Kevin had a fundraiser for me. Not only did they have a fundraiser, but they also organized for an escort to the event! Centre square fire department let me sign the pink fire truck! They also presented me with a very nice donation. The night was so memorable! Normally, we have real tree for christmas. But this year I did not want to hassle with the needles. I decided we would have an artificial tree. Monday, I got a Christmas tree! Aunt Pam took me to a store that had the most beautiful trees! Sadie and I got to pick our favorite one! It is so beautiful! Of course, there is nothing quite like a real tree. But this tree comes close. Our tree is so full, unlike other trees you can see the post, AND, with the click of a button, the lights can either be colorful or white! To top of this wonderful feeling, The Body Serene Day Spa adopted us for Christmas! Tuesday I picked up all the gifts that these amazing people bought my girls. I am so grateful that my girls will not feel let down because of my sickness. Yes, they do know that Christmas is Jesus ' birthday. But they also believe in Santa. Christmas is a magical time of year. So, as I lay here, wide awake, thank you coffee, I can not help but enjoy this feeling! I am soaking up these magical moments. I hope one day I have the same opportunity to help someone else. I hope I am able to ease a burden for them. Whether that is cooking, cleaning or helping with a holiday or special event. I hope to pass on this feeling of being overwhelmed with gratitude!
