I just realized it's been 2 weeks since I last blogged! Man, the Christmas/New Year's activities really take alot of time and energy. Not that I'm complaining, I've loved every minute of it, albeit rushed.
Christmas at our house went great. The girls got lots of toys and had a blast, we ran somewhere each day of the long weekend but I'm kinda sad it's over. I actually didn't want to take my tree down this year. Normally, I'm taking it all down Christmas night but not this year. Nope, I waited til New Year's Day and even then, didn't want to. Maybe it's because it's been such a wonderful Christmas season this year. I feel truly blessed!
New Year's Eve was filled with friends, family and fun. We spent the evening at my best friend, Susan's house. It was enjoyable and relaxing all at once. I'm sad to report that a teenage girl lost her life that evening. Susan's husband, Don, is a firefighter and got the call while we were at her house around 7pm. I didn't know the girl but please say a prayer for her family. Such a sad loss but we must remember that God knows what He's doing.
Bright and early New Year's morning (4:30 to be exact), I was called in to work for a fatal pedestrian accident. Then as I was finishing that up, I was called to another call of a child that was found dead by his mother that morning. He was only 4 but had severe health issues and had no quality of life really. As a mother, I have a hard time saying this but he truly is better off in the arms of his eternal Father. However, that leaves another 2 families that are in much need of prayers.
Take a moment and hug the ones you love. If they aren't close enough to hug, call or email them to let them know you care. Dad & Tina, I'm sending a internet hug your way... love y'all!
