I can't believe it's the middle of the month; it's time for a reflective moment with Path of Positivity! This month our theme is appreciation; now that's very timely since here in the US we celebrate Thanksgiving. Now, as we near mid-November and celebrate Thanksgiving in the US this week, we are looking ahead to the holidays in December as well as looking back at the year as it comes to its close.
2016 has been full of celebrations to remember and appreciate. The layout above is a lovely remembrance of Baby Cass's baptism. Such a lovely day where her Papa held her as her mommy and daddy looked on. Obviously my husband was overjoyed with this honor.
Here at our house, we celebrate Christmas and we all have an appreciation for the religious and secular traditions surrounding the holiday. I personally love the beautiful decor, twinkling lights, and mystery of the wrapped gifts under the tree.
I have appreciation for our tradition of feeding the barn animals extra feed on Christmas Eve night before church.
I hold deep appreciation for my church and the beautiful services celebrating the manger scene so long ago.
Sometimes it is so difficult to appreciate the beauty around us if it is clouded by fear or uncertainty.
My holiday wish is to have that cloud dissipated and true appreciation and joy experienced by all.
