My First Christmas In Heaven!



I still hear the songs;I still see the lights,

I still share your hopes and all of your cares;I'll even remind you to say your prayers.

I just want to tell you, you still make me proud;You stand head and shoulders above the crowd.

Keep trying each moment to stay in His grace;I came here before you to help set your place.

You don't have to be perfect all the time;God forgives you the slip if you continue to climb.

To my family and friends,please be thankful today;I'm still close beside you in a new special way.

Please love and keep each other, as our Father said to do;I can't count the blessings of love He has for you.

Have a joyous Christmas and wipe away that tear.

Remember, I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Mom,

I'm sitting here trying to get in the Christmas mood, but I keep thinking about how you would be these last few days before christmas. I'm waiting for your call to help you buy that special presant for Vito. By the way, I had a good laugh with Sue about the year you put up that rubber tree:).

I miss you so much.

Love

Kathy
