Merry Christmas!

​The Christmas Express will be picking up speed in the next twenty four hours so hang on!  Christmas is my wife’s annual coming out party. No one does Christmas like her. I’ve come to realize that my wife shows her love for her family by always trying to give everyone all they want and need. My wife is the best gift giver I have ever known. There has never been a Christmas morning when I wasn’t surprised by something. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. I will be spending the day cooking and doing other last minute chores before heading to my 85 year old mother's house to be with my siblings and extended family.  In the past I would also be visiting people on Christmas Day but now I get to stay home and my children and granddaughter come to my house for the day.  This is the benefit of being Paw Paw and Meemo.  We will start with a big breakfast and follow that with our family gift exchange. The rest of the day will be spent chilling out. I am grateful for my family, my friends, and all the many blessings in my life. I hope that all of you feel the same.
