Merry Christmas Eve!

Wishing we were many places right now.
Missing many cute nephews.
Many awesome siblings.
Our 4 great parents and grandmother.
And tons of cousins.
Thankful we (two) get to be together.
Thankful Charlie has a job.
Thankful for the pups.
Thankful for where God has us now.
Thankful life has seasons.
Thankful it's 40 degrees outside.

I wish I had done a better job preparing my heart for this celebration. 
Thank you, Jesus, for experiencing life as one of us.
For knowing what it's like to be separated and yet connected.
For making things right.
