It's December - Already???

Hi - It's December and I have finished all the requirements for my Master's Degree! I drove to Carrollton on Friday, Dec 5, for my portfolio presentation. I was back on the road by 9:00 and for the first time since I have been travelling back and forth, I got REALLY SLEEPY! But, I made it home and slept the sleep of the dead!!

December brings two family birthdays, and Christmas. Parker will be 17 this year, and I hope he has had a year of learned lessons! Mama's birthday is on the 16th, and I am so grateful that she is in good health and still has lots of spunk!!

The Christmas season brings about many things - some good and some not so good. Friends and family, laughter and presents. Some people won't have those things - some people are facing their first Christmas without a spouse or child. Remember those who are struggling to just make it through, and make it a priority to remember why we celebrate Christmas!
