Tears of JOY, LOVE, and GRATITUDE


For about the past 20 years we have done the 12 days of Christmas to someone in need of some Christmas joy and magic. We have included our kids and last year my 4 year old grandson even joined in. It gives you such a warm feeling to spread the Christmas spirit. This year because I am unemployed, we just can't do it and it has really been bothering me.

Can you imagine my surprise when there was a light tap on my door and I opened the door to this gift 

along with this note 

My eyes have been full of tears off and on since I opened my door. This means more to me than I could possibly put into words.

This is the most incredible time of year. No matter what you have going on in your life the magic of the season will warm those cold dark places inside if you just allow it. 

THANK YOU to whoever is reminding me of what the true spirit of Christmas is all about. I needed it so much this year

Oh, Linda, that is so wonderful!
Your heart is always so big and giving.
You sure do deserve a surprise like that.

I remember a certain family who brightend and lifted my Christmas spirit. My heart is still carrying that joy :)

Love your guts!
