Christmas has come and gone way too fast! So much work and fun getting there and and it's over in a day. But this year I did a lot of thinking! I know the true meaning of Christmas but this year, I felt it! Maybe because I'm not sick anymore and I know what all he has done for me!! As I sat in church Christmas Eve service I thought about Christmas Eve service 2007, when I was soo sick and just getting ready to do my work up to get on the transplant list. Dana and her family weren't there this year. Since they lost Jordan it is too hard to stay here for Christmas, so they went on a cruise this year! As I sat , waiting on the service to start, I texted Dana because all I could think about was Dec 24, 2007, when I stood in the back of the church with Dana and Jordan telling Dana that I may need her help soon.. (that story is posted in another blog) I texted Dana that I was sitting in "my pew" this year, not standing at the back of the church, and it felt 'weird' to be there. She texted back that she loved me and she was just coming in from the beach. But she remembered that evening as clear as I did.
That service meant a lot that night and my eyes teared up w/ joy.
