twas the night before christmas....

actually

it's the morning before christmas

and

i just wanted to take this time to let you all know 

how very dear you are to me

your support and love throughout this year

has helped me climb the path that's in front of me 

often 

with you at the top telling me to keep going

and

your constant words of wisdom 

have acted like bumper pads

as i've bounced around in the ups and downs of life

this little corner of the world

where my words and photos come alive

is so special to me

and

all of you have been a part of it

when i've been out on a limb

you've been there to catch me 

and

pray with me or for me

and

laugh with me when i needed it the most

thank you

all of you

for being you

and

sharing you with me

while i've shared me with you

~

may you all be blessed with the merriest and happiest christmas 

surrounded by those you love

and

those that love you right back
