Miracles Do Happen

What a Wonderful World
This Can Be!!

A few months ago I wrote a blog about a wonderful blogging mom, Nie, who was in an airplane crash. Her family and friends have been raising money to help out with Nie and her husband's medical expenses. And her sister Courtney, along with others I'm sure, have been keeping her blog alive as well as posting updates for all those wondering minds like mine. It has been a miracle to me to see the outpouring of love and support this awesome and deserving family has received and continues to receive! It reminds me that there really is good in this sometimes crappy world.

Nie was back at the computer today to write her first blog to all of her old faithful followers as well as many new friends! And while her physical appearance may be different her spirit remains the same!

May all the sunshine
in the universe
continue to shine down
on Nie and her family
as they recover together!!!!

OK so I admit that I did my civil duty and voted for President. Now you can do some service yourself and go vote for one of my favorite blogs CJane Enjoy It! She is up for a Weblog Award and totally deserves to win. Her blog is informative and uplifting with just the right hint of sarcasm to show she's a spitfire!!! I love it!

So if you're reading this on January 13th then please go to the Weblog Awards and vote for CJane!!!!

Believe and Ye Shall Receive

Santa Claus is alive and well in our house this December. Jumpin' J is a Santa magnet and can find his picture anywhere and when he does he says "Ho Ho Ho" because duh that's what Santa says!

Here's a link to J as Santa!!!

I am so very grateful to have such a great husband and son along with extended family and friends to share this holiday season with. Since it is a time of giving I thought I would post about Macy's Make a Wish program. All you have to do is to write a letter to Santa and drop it in one of their mailboxes. For every letter they receive they will donate $1 to the Make a Wish Foundation. Jumpin' J and I will be working on his today!
