Grateful

Today I thought of something, the Christmas before my dad's original accident my family was all there together at home. My brother mentioned that my mom forced us all to be home, but it doesn't matter, she felt that it was important for us all to be together that particular Christmas, the Christmas before my dad changed and was no longer himself. Then this past Christmas again my family was all together again, the last Christmas that we could be all together before my dad passed away. I am grateful that someone in our family saw the need of my family being all together for these particular Christmas's, that we could these two significant opportunities to be together.
