Home for Christmas.

          I've enjoyed a few days out of service to celebrate Christmas with my family and friends.  It's been rough because it's our first Christmas without my brother.  It just didn't quite seem right to be opening presents and having a celebration without him.  Making it even harder is the fact that we had presents from him. See, when he realized how short of time he had left, he went ahead and bought presents for everyone... so, after we had our regular present exchange, we opened our presents from him.  That was hard, but yet healing... because even tho he's gone from this world, and present in the next, he was still with us... we got to see one last time, that in the midst of his pain, he was thinking of us.. and wanted to make sure we had one last gift from him.

Enjoy Heaven Don... see ya.
