Jimma loved Christmas time......her blue eye would shine with excitement as she spied her presents under the tree..we'd be sure to find hers out in the weeks preceding the big day...just to let her touch and build the anticipation of opening her gifts....and o' how she loved to go shopping.... choosing just the right gift never got weirisome!....she made it clear whether or not she thought the intended gift was just the right one or not. Jimma was very particular in her gift-giving....she'd turn her face away from an item she deemed unworthy....there was no changing her mind once she made her decision! ....as a matter of fact, Jimma was just as happy watching everyone else in the family opening their presents as she was discovering what was hidden inside her very own bright packages...

now.... Christmas without my angel just isn't the same. Yes, for my family I press on...pushing myself forward ... doing the things I feel I should to keep the season bright for them...but....there is, now, also a drive to continue doing something for my Jimma...so....I decorate her little garden of memories...bright colored lights that I know she would get excited about......Soo...I push myself as hard as I can....until it feels right....in Jimma's honor....for her memory...

I just cannot celebrate this blessed day without including her...somehow......sooooo.....On this page....I share with you pictures of Jimma's garden .. decorated for Christmas festivities.....Take a few moments and walk with me....be sure to bundle up!!!..it's cold outside......

Her Christmas spirit seems to live on....I can 'feel' her there...in her garden of memories.....my precious memories........

We must remember to keep Christ is Christmas~~~~They say the colors each have a meaning: blue stands for peace--red stands for the blood--white is for purity--green symbolizes eternal life ~ie. the evergreen-- I am so very thankful for the beautiful white snow that fell on Christmas Day!!
