Merry Christmas

As I sit here this Christmas Eve completing some garments for New Year's Eve, I reflect on the real reason for Christmas.  My three children are all grown and I have 4 grandchildren that of course are expecting great things for Christmas but I am at the age where I am so grateful for being alive to experience whatever each day holds.  I don't have any needs that have not been provided for, and the few wants if I wait a few minutes they become unimportant.  I am so thankful for the gift of Jesus Christ to the world and his sacrifice so that all of us can enjoy so much.  Thankful for living in a country where we have the freedom to choose what we believe in.

So for this Christmas I am simply grateful for the simple things of a loving family, health and strength, abilities and talents and for just another opportunity to show the real reason for the season and that is most definitely Jesus Christ.

Everyone enjoy your Christmas with family and friends and don't forget the reason for your celebration.

As always, Happy Sewing!!
