NOT A CREATURE IS STIRRING, 

NOT EVEN A MOUSE...

Today is Christmas Eve, my favorite day of the year!  I love this day and have since a young child.  All of the chaos and commotion of getting ready for Christmas Day is done, gifts wrapped, cookies baked and the home decorated.  Anticipation is building, especially among the children, but a peace has settled in the house.
 I've always felt an inner quiet and peace.  Everyone is so happy and connected.
 FEEL IT! Sit around the tree or enjoy a warm cup of hot chocolate while watching a favorite Christmas show.
ENJOY IT!  It's the most perfect day of the year.
EMBRACE IT! remember it! Try to incorporate this magical feeling, into your life, every night of the year. APPRECIATE IT! all that you have and those you are with.
I know how important this feeling is...The saddest Christmas Eve, of my life, at the age of 7 (my mother died a month earlier) was given back to me 30 years later on the happiest Christmas Eve of my life when my daughter was born!
BELIEVE IT and it will come true for you.

                                                       ...AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT

Give the gift of love

GIVE THE GIFT OF LOVE

The last few days have been heartbreaking with thoughts of overwhelming sadness.

As we continue to prepare for the holiday season we must remember the families broken by the unspeakable horror that occurred in Newton, Connecticut . 

Hug your children. Hug your loved ones.  Be kind to all those that cross your path. 

Deep in our hearts we know that love and kindness is what each of us really wants and needs each and everyday.  This tradegy is a grim reminder that life gets in the way of taking a brief but important moment to say " I love you" , " I care about you",

Take the time, EVERYDAY, before the time is taken away.

My prayers are with these families and all of us.

God grant them strength and peace. 

May God bless all of us and guide us
