Well we have most of are Christmas shopping done. We just have a few gifts for Roz than we are done. Thank you Jesus. The only bad thing about last minute shopping are the last minute shoppers. Where is the Christmas joy? the Christmas spirit? Why are some people so rude, impatient, and unkind. Is this what Christmas is truly about now. No giving, kindness, and joyfulness. What has happen to it all. Have we became a society of greed, and whats in it for me people? I pray that we have not. This is a joyful time of the year for this is when our savior has been born. The true meaning of Christmas, Jesus.
But, I think God answered this question last week for me. Rick and I went to Wal-Mart for wind shield wipers, and as every year the Salvation Army volunteers were out. For that night the youth hockey team were out singing and ringing their bells so proudly. Every time someone put money in the bucket they would hoot and hauler! They were such alively bunch of boys. Dedicating there time to help for such a great cause. You couldn't walk away without laughter or a smile. There is Christmas spirit, kindness, and joyfulness. It's right in front for us. We don't have to look very hard for it. God shows us when we need to see it, and reminds us when we need to remember. Isn't he awesome. Thank you God for the reminder.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!

Merry Christmas! It can be hard to get in the spirit with all the commercialism around us. Glad the hockey team was there to show some holiday cheer!
