13

My daughter turns 13 today.

I hear people say it makes them feel old as their children get older but that's not how I feel. It just makes me wonder what happened to all the years in between. They flew by so fast it seems like I missed them.

I want to turn back the clock and live them all again.

Christmas Morning

Peace found me on Christmas morning. I felt able, finally, to take a deep breath and notice the beauty.

Peace hasn't been around here for some time, and its nice to see it.

The peace began last night with a chance to read on the couch and doze off. I can't remember when I was last able to do that!

A good night's sleep was followed by an opportunity to appreciate some of the images of Christmas morning that follow.










Merry Christmas!
