EMAIL TO MY LOVE IN HEAVEN This will be our first Christmas apart as husband and wife…55 glorious years. Whatever will I do without you? Christmas morning was always so special, when our girls were still AT home and when they left to be in their own homes, it was stil so very special for us. I can’t help but wonder what you will be doing to celebrate in Heaven…will it still be a special day to you; who will you celebrate with; will you remember our Christmases together? Remember how we loved to shop for presents, then go to dinner afterwards…then we would do it all over again another day because it was so much fun? I loved our trips to nearby towns to look at the many homes trimmed so beautifully. I have done none of those things that we did together, I have done all my shopping on the internet…absolutely no fun in that, whatsoever! I have been doing well, but, for some reason, I became sad when I left church this morning. I have always felt lifted-up and refreshed after Sunday service, but today left me a bit on the sad side…maybe because it’s the last Sunday before Christmas and I didn’t have you sitting beside me. I stopped at the cemetery and spent some time with Mom and Dad…I felt their presence, very strongly. I did feel somewhat better after leaving them, but still feared the thought of being alone on Christmas. When I got home, I sat with you in your special place and read some passages in my bible, hoping to find some words that would enter my soul and snap me out of my present state of mind. Here is what came before me: “Do not be afraid-I am with you! I am your God-let nothing terrify You! I will make you strong and help you; I will protect and save you.” Isaiah 41:10 I felt that God knew my pain and put those words in front of me to calm my fears…it worked! I won’t be alone on Christmas Eve. I have planned dinner with our entire family, including the Adams, Millhollands, Cyrs, and the Wright/Dawsons (Jaxson and Jayden .... will be the stars of the evening). We have two Granddogers, Ivy and Abby-Gene...dont know if they are coming or not. They are such fun to watch, but very ADDHAD :) I havent written you since we lost Mom. You know she was ready to go She was so frail and in so much pain that I held her hand and prayed for God to take her...two hours later she was gone, much like when Dad passed. It is my hope that you are all together in Heaven! I must end this email and fix some supper...havent eaten today. MERRY CHRISTMAS MY LOVE (I love you MTTYLTT) ♥
