Everything really will change, but love remains the same...

Oddly enough I felt seriously inclined to blog about this RIGHT when it came to me.

So much is changing in everyone's lives--money, work, family, just everything.
As the holidays approach, I remember Shon and I telling ourselves this was the holiday season we are going to make it a point to enjoy it this time around. We always find ourselves wrapped up in what we are going to get Ashton next, how are we going to pay for that person's gift, what are we going to get eachother, etc.
Forget the gifts, forget about money, forget about how much money you spend on someone's gift. It doesn't matter.
Instead, reflect on the more positive things...
Here is my (condensed) list:
I am thankful I have a job
...My husband has a job
...I may not be able to pay my bills on time every month, but atleast I can try
...we have cars that can get us from point a to point b
...my family has a roof over it's head
...we have food in the fridge (not much, but we do)
...I have a husband that loves me for who I am
...I have a family that cares
...everything is changing in our lives...but our love remains the same.

There are things in our lives we need to recognize that we have, because someone next door may not have it.

I hope you are all thankful this holiday season.

Love,
Cristina
