Firsts...

We decorated our tree shortly after Thanksgiving; we wanted to decorate it for Kaizen. I don't know what his favorite color was but he did always have a green blanket that we took with us regularly so.....

We decorated it purple and green..... I love purple. I love green. And I love my little Kaizen.

I got some ornaments with pictures of Kaizen and put them up. They turned out so good!

These firsts are tough and there are so many of them. Just when I pull myself together through one, another one creeps in. We are staying strong, we are staying faithful. I keep thinking that it won't be forever that we are apart, thank goodness. This life here is only temporarily and will always come to an end. Kaizen is waiting for us and getting our permanent home ready.

I don't want to sound depressing; I don't want this blog to turn into that. I want it to be uplifting and helpful. I just want to tell people that life will get hard, it will be unbearable at times but just don't give up. This is only temporary, just hang in there, live righteously, and when the time comes, your next world will be an absolute beautiful paradise.

Now put your trees up, put your lights up(if you haven't already), surround yourself with your family, and enjoy this time here. Enjoy it while you still can! Take in the smells, laugh until it hurts and don't be afraid of anything!

Happy Holidays to you and your families!

Don't forget the true meaning of *Christ*mas.
