To anyone who had a blue Christmas this year.

I also had a blue Christmas for a bit today. I just lost my brother and my best friend to lung cancer on Dec. 4th. I really didn't want Christmas to come. This morning I was up waiting and waiting for the nieces and nephews and their families to come like they usually do at 7 am. And nobody came. I felt really down and I felt like they forgot me. Then I thought maybe they were blue too because the lost of their dad and their uncle. So I went and prayed and asked God for a sign that my brother was looking down on us. And I glanced out the window and hopeing to see a deer run out back. And I saw nothing and then I really got sadden until I looked down on the ground next to my window and there was a gray squirrel sitting up on his back legs staring at me. I thanked God for giving me this sign. I goes to show us that it can be right under our noses and we often don't see. I wish I was near you I would give you a hug. I just want to let you know I care. God bless you and keep you well. Sandy

That is so sweet of you. And what a touching story. May we all remember to look for those signs in unexpected places or forms! May the year ahead bring much happiness to you and those you care about. Love, Ilene Rachel
