K and A came here for Christmas, and we were able to get a few favorite traditions in. Caroling, and Swiss Christmas. We did Christmas eve with the Guisti's and played some games. On Christmas we had a lazy day spent in pj's and had a really good dinner with all the fixin's.
But, the best part of the day was a Skype with Sister K. It was great to see her and hear all the good things that are happening for her. She is loving what she is doing and is so happy. Her happiness just could not be contained. We had a great time chatting with her, and said our "I love you's and good byes." I missed having B here, but so happy she is doing what she is. She too said she missed us and the activities she was missing around the holidays, but she is so happy to serve and bring the gospel to people. It is fun to see her testimony continue to grow each in her letters home.
It is strange to not have everyone here with us, but especially for holidays. But it does make me realize just how lucky I am to have a family that can be together forever. I miss them when they aren't here! I suppose that will continue for the rest of my life.
Good things:
1. The gift of Jesus Christ
2. skype
3. being a mom
This child continues to keep things lively!
