I was so happy to hear from you, no...Dear Cynthia. I was so happy to hear from you, no matter how short it might be. <br /><br />I hate to hear that your depressed, sad and exhausted. I knew something must have been wrong. You've really been on my mind and I hadn't seen any post lately. I don't want to sound nosy so I will just tell you this. What ever you might be going through, I'm happy to be here for you. If it helps to share, I'm happy to listen. If it's something you want to keep to yourself but would like to talk to someone but avoid the subject, I'm your girl. You just tell me and I'm here for you in any capacity you need. I battle depression and I can certainly understand the depths it can take you too.<br /><br />If you aren't up to visiting me, I'll stop by and check in on you, if you don't mind. Just to let you know I'm thinking of you. I know when I'm depressed I always worry that those who love me will take it personal if I don't talk to them and that only adds to the un-needed pressure. <br /><br />If you decide you want to talk let me know and I can give you my phone # through email. Or we can always just visit by email.<br /><br />Your in my prayers Sweetheart. Love you, Tracy :)<br /><br /> exhausted and depressed and sad - haven't been able to post since Christmas Eve - my point is, I know you will understand when I simply say that I appreciate the notes you left me and that I love you.

Your web site is so beautiful and I know you will reach many people through your loving words! The presence of God's love is in every post you have written! I, too, lost a loved one in August and can fully understand the sorrow that you are feeling! I have another website for my knitting and I thought that you might want to go there to read my memorial posts about my loved one!<br />http://www.missanneslace.com<br /><br />In 2002, I lost 25 family members and friends in one year, including my brother's wife (only 31 years old! A lot of the friends were Christians from my Home Church in Virginia, most were elderly, but I had grown up with these people and they were like family, (in Christ)! <br /><br />We can't always understand the reasons but we know that God does and it is His mighty hand that guides our lives! Somehow that makes me feel better to know that He is bigger than anything I will ever have to go through!<br /><br />Keep posting your beautiful messages! This is something I feel that God has lead you to do and He is speaking through your lovely voice and healing your broken heart at the same time!! <br />Remember, we can do all things through Jesus Christ!<br />God bless you! <br />Thank you so much,<br />Kymberly<br /></a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00502264197573288754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861332079039263910.post-57140200857362680562010-01-09T17:17:38.061-08:002010-01-09T17:17:38.061-08:00Hello Cynthia!

I lost my dad this time last year and I do miss him but I know he is having a better time with his Father.<br />A couple days before he passed he shook his finger at me and said "don't you cry after I leave I will be with my Heavenly Father!" and then added with a smile "you're not that far behind me..." In context he is right.<br />I loved your Christmas story, this year we didn't read the Christmas story my dad always did and I had planned on it but it just got too hectic and it has bothered me.<br />My very best to you this new year<br />Blessings<br />RebeccaRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10278401609888310410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861332079039263910.post-3312257289253473972010-01-08T17:35:44.821-08:002010-01-08T17:35:44.821-08:00Hi,

It's a wonderful cookbook and if you read The Pioneer Woman's blog you will enjoy it even more.<br /><br />Loved your post! How totally sad to think there is someone who doesn't know how to spell the name of Jesus! A friends grandson asked once how come Jesus was named a swear word because I guess that was the only context he heard it used in. How very sad! Love your tradition and I think I will start next Christmas doing the same, my grands are 6 and 7 and know the real story of Christmas from Sunday School and church but this would reinforce it even more!

I was so touched by ...Happy New Year Dear Cynthia. I was so touched by the comments you left for me. It meant so much to hear that you'd missed me. This Christmas started out with me feeling so alone, no decorating, no gifts, no holiday spirit around me it's turned into a beautiful Christmas because of people like you. The dearest, kindest, most caring people who have made me feel loved when I felt alone and worthless. God has provided me with several very special people, one of which is you. I believe people are brought into peoples life at certain points for certain reasons and probably un-beknownest to you, you have a conduit for the Lord. You and your kindness have made a difference in my life. Thank you!<br /><br />The story of you sharing with your family is just so beautiful. You're right it is very hard to share with the ones we love the most. There is that nagging thought that as they smile they all are going to talk about how pious I think I am. It's very hard to do the right thing and share Jesus with others. <br /><br />I can just picture those sweet children's eyes. I'm sure this made such an impact on them, it will stay with them the rest of their lives and possibly become the tradition that they share with their children. I imagine it felt like a magical moment and that all the adults were moved too.<br /><br />You're in my prayers dear Cynthia. I wish you all the best in 2010 and the new decade.

I hope for you dear friend, that you and I and all of us in the New Year can live life to the fullest, cherish our loved ones that are still here and that when we remember our loved ones that have passed on to a better place, that it isn't with heartbreak...but with much love and happiness that we had them in our lives for as long as we did and that we are so lucky to have the ability to remember...I hope your heart isn't hurting too much dear friend, know that so many of us feel your pain and that we are all thinking of you too, I am so lucky the day you came across my lil blog and chose to become my friend. Much love to you amor, please feel free to email me anytime, and if you EVER feel like just talking, please let me know, I will give you my phone numbers, you can reach me at anytime, day or night.

Every year for as long as I can remember when we have Christmas out at my parents the kids dress up as Mary, Joseph, angels, shepherds etc. and come out into the living room as we sing carols. I remember MY babies being baby Jesus and now my kids babies have taken that spot. My dad also reads the Christmas story every year from the Bible. Wonderful precious memories!!<br />Hugs~<br />ps. also so so sad that the girl at the store had no clue. I am sure there are many just like her...God love them!Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15954904310115552203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861332079039263910.post-51634053613465880102010-01-02T08:26:01.718-08:002010-01-02T08:26:01.718-08:00I did this with my children when they were young. ...I did this with my children when they were young.
