I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Holidays are the time for bringing families and friends together. I hope that everyone had the opportunity to spend time with their loved ones. I also hope your upcoming Christmas holiday will be a joyful one!
Sometimes we have a tendency to get caught up in trying to figure out who is cooking what, what to buy this one or that one, that we forget the true meaning of Christmas. Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Christ. It is a time for giving. This season is a great time for sharing, for getting together with family and friends, and remembering the importance of family. Despite all the sicknesses and sadness that life may have brought to you or your family, I hope that each of you can carry on and have a happy holiday season this year and always.
Always remember that gift giving is not about a competition to see who can give the best or most expensive gift. It should be about showing someone you care, not about impressing them with material things. Helping others by giving or volunteering can be one of the best ways to defeat stress in your life, try it this year!
If you or someone you know might be interested in volunteering their time to do something special with our residents—please feel free to call me, Sherry Stuart. We are always looking for fun and new ideas and you just may be the one to help out with this!
Mark your calendar for our annual Christmas Open House. It is scheduled for Wednesday December 22nd from 2-4 p.m. We will have treats and lots of good eats too! Don’t miss this one, I think even Santa or Mrs. Claus will be here to join us again this year!
Until next month,
Sherry
