It isn't what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart.

Great quote. Thanks for sharing. This time of year is so wonderful. Here in Utah, my neighborhood is usually quite this time of day. Everyone is usually at church, but the snow is pouring down. Church got cancelled half-way through so that people could get home safely. The men are all out plowing the roads, each others driveways, and the sidewalks. It's bustling out there and people are looking out for those women whose husbands are serving in the military or those that are elderly. My neighbor, just invited us over for dinner along with a bunch of other neighbors to repay the favor of plowing her driveway. Everyone is more helpful and thoughtful and it's just a wonderful feeling. Thanks for the quote. It really stresses the idea that it's not material gifts that matter. It's love and kindness. Have a wonderful day!

Oh, so true!

How are you Tracey?

I bet you'll be having the best Christmas ever this year ... :)

Isn't that the truth? Thanks for the reminder at this time of year. My kids spent a good part of the AM playing in a large cardboard box with two wooden spoons (boat and oars). I kept thinking about the ridiculous list of toys I have been carrying around in my purse. These kids don't need more toys. They need opportunities to be creative with what we have! These moments are what I am most appreciative of - healthy kids enjoying one another - regardless of the toy/location/expense.

I appreciate the work of all people who share information with others.
