Counting blessings:

Katie Beth is healthy and developing normally

I have a job, with supportive wonderful people

Alice is alive, albeit unable to stand or walk right now

Sandy is alive, albeit deeply upset

We all have bought each other lovely Christmas presents

We are going to see lots of family over the Christmas season

We have a house, cars, TV, internet, and all sorts of other stuff

REALLY, our only problem is that Alice is stuck in a terrible place for Christmas. That's it! Things could be way worse. While I do feel like we've staggered from one crisis to the next for months now, at least it's just one crisis at a time.

Counting your blessings is a good approach!

Also... It's not a terrible place. They care for her and are helping her get to a point where she can come home.

Remember Christmas isn't about the place, the gifts, or anything else... it's about the people and the spirit you bring with you.
