Being Present

Posted on 12/24/2017 by Amy

There aren’t as many gifts as there could be under the tree this year. I am learning to accept that being present is much more important than the presents. It’s a lesson I think we will all benefit from, but it still hurts to have to let my kids down. Praying that we all come through this difficult season a little stronger, more appreciative, compassionate, and loving. Our Christmas might not be picture perfect but it is a part of our story and I am grateful I am still here to be a part of it.

About Amy

Mom to boys who were born Aug. 2001, Nov. 2004, March 2006; and devoted wife to the love of my life since Nov. 1998. Chronic worrier but devoted Christian who is trying to put her fears and faith in the One who created it all and provides for all my needs despite the daily challenges and doubts that arise. Along the way I chose to share my journey with you. Thanks for coming along for the ride! The road won't always be bright and the journey may sometimes be hard, but it can be an amazing adventure if you keep your eyes and thoughts "on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable" (Philippians 4:8).
