My husband recently gave me an anniversary card that declares, “You’re so Right for Me!” Now mind you, our anniversary is not until September 22nd, but we kind of feel every day we celebrate the wonders of God’s grace in bringing us together.

In my family, we have a tradition of filling Christmas stockings. We hang a stocking for each person who will be part of our Christmas celebration. Everyone brings one thing for each stocking and usually the stockings are bulging with delights before the last treat can be added. It’s great fun to anticipate these sweet […]
