Celebrating Blessings

Well, Christmas is upon is and 2011 is nearly over. I am feeling extra blessed this time of year. We started this yr with headaches almost immediately in January and we are ending it headache free. I cannot believe it has been so long, but yet it doesn't feel that way. I sure have had my reminders lately. Casey and I went to Houston this weekend to have a little get away to celebrate his birthday. On our way there, we started talking about our first trip down to Texas Children's and how he was calm and he says I was literally shaking. Although, I don't remember that, I don't doubt it. It is funny how little things seem to remind me of his tumor. The other day I was planning my outfit for the next day and then thought of the last time I wore the outfit was to my grandmothers birthday party in January and I remember Ty complaining of a headache and screaming the whole way home from pain I am sure.  I don't doubt that I will have these memories for a very long time, but at least I can then think of him now and how well he is doing and has done and just how great God is. Unfortunately so many people don't celebrate Christmas for the right reasons, but this year, I am celebrating him more than ever before. I will never understand how people do not believe and I will never understand why people don't want to believe. There is no way we could have gotten through our tragedy without having faith in a higher power. We are so blessed to celebrate the birth of our Jesus Christ. He is the almighty and he is our healer. So to all of my friends and followers, I want to wish you the merriest Christmas of all.
