On the fifth day of Christmas my true love gave to me,

five Golden rings.

Is it true?

Do we have five days left till the holiest day of the year?

This has been an amazing holiday for me personally.

When we left for France, it was 70 degrees and autumn.

When we returned, Christmas had arrived.

Matilda, ma cherie, is growing at the speed of light.

Lauren and Josh, {our own Raymond & Debra} inspire and entertain us daily.

Jamison is doing ok. I am impressed by her bravery and conviction.

My Larry is exuberant again.

He loves the new position at work and smiles a lot.

As I am finishing the second half of my 5th year, cancer free,

knowing that the joy and love in our hearts and lives

has nothing to do with golden rings or what is under the tree.

It has no monetary value.

It if free to us all

and

we must work very hard to achieve it.

Are you going to give it to someone for Christmas?

Love you.

Me
