It is the Christmas season as the month of December moves onward towards the end of the year.  It is a season of celebrating for many.

I’m ‘stealing’ this from a woman who was Head of Volunteers for a Hospice Company in my community.  She has the biggest heart, most kind soul and gives of herself like I have seen no other give.  She is a special friend and lady.  I am blessed to know her.

The weather here in sunny South Florida, USA, has been beautiful with no humidity, light cool breezes and warm sunshine.
