After a big pout yesterday, I’m feeling better today. Thanks for the condolences! Rebekah sure is right, I have to remember, Christmas is indeed different for a pastor’s family! But while that’s true and we won’t see much of Daddy on Christmas Eve, there are benefits of being Pastor’s family in a church with such thoughtful members. We have received so many nice cards, gifts for the girls, a fruit basket, cookies and gift cards to our town pub. I’m very thankful that our people think about us during this time and are so appreciative of all Phil does here. It reminds me that we are here for a reason and as difficult as it gets sometimes we are so blessed to be here and to be a part of what the Lord wants Phil to continue doing here…though, yes Heidi, sometimes a call to Texas doesn’t sound so bad. And being able to iChat with my family on Christmas day will be very good. Can you believe people used to only be able to talk on the phone?! Weird.
We also received another package from Tx today, full of fun things! I couldn’t help but let the girls have a few of them a little early. I hid everything else.
Such a cute hat, leg warmers and an alligator!
Oh, and it’s snowing…lots. Looks like we’ll definitely be having a very very white Christmas!
