I was at the store this morning to pick up the last few odds and ends for our Christmas Eve dinner and I felt so rushed. All of a sudden I had this huge feeling of peace come over me and whatever I accomplished today was good enough. Right then I knew I had you at my side. I was thinking how I used to rush around with you, but you always seemed to be so calm and happy with the end result. I remembered how you always liked it when we had snow at Christmas, and when we came out of the store....it was snowing! Large big snow flakes. And I knew it was you pouring your love out and letting me know you were with me in Spirt this Christmas. Being the first Christmas without you, I still find I need to call you for a recepie or a gift idea. Some days I miss you so much I can hardly breath. Everyday I still try to make you proud. I love you always and I hold you forever in my heart. Merry Christmas Mama. Love you always

My dearest sister--I miss you so much this Christmas time. I remember all of our Christmas's gone past as we were children together. They all seem so vivid. I made 2 promises to you and I am doing the best I can to make good. I know you see my work and are with me each and every day. You are in my heart and prayers and we will be together in time to walk together in the beautiful gardens in heaven with mom and dad. Glory be to God at this time of the year. All my love dear sis, Betsy.

It seems that now I need you more than ever. I feel so very alone without you here to relax with. I never realized just how much you said just by holding my hands until now. I love you Mom. Always your skinny daughter ;)
