Joyous Christmas!

So yesterday was okay for a Christmas with the family. Things did not turn out to be the best, but I really tried hard to give my parents the best I could since they were not able to do much this time around. It was a bit frustrating because my younger sister did not help or give anyone anything this Christmas. I was talking to Anthony the other day in the car and was explaining how people can be so selfish. I told him that if God could give his one and only Son to save our lives, why couldn't others give to people too. It's not all about us a lot of times and we just need to show love. He did agree that I was right and that no one should ever think of themselves only. There is nothing wrong with me time and having your good book and glass of wine. I just don't understand how the simplicity of giving your time or love to someone will hurt. It will only make you appreciate everything you have. My parents spoil that child to the ends and she just doesn't understand hard work or even giving back. Of course I gave Anthony a few gifts and he loved them all. He really shocked me this year and got me a lot of things I didn't expect. But all in all having him home for Christmas was the best thing in the world. And I thank God for every moment and breath we take together. I know others were not able to have their men home and I take my heart into that. I hope everyone had the absolute best Christmas and enjoyed themselves
