Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Roy!
It's really good to be around family during, Christmas, even though were not complete, but still, grateful for God's grace and goodness upon our lives..
I know you miss daddy too. And for me, there's an outpouring recurrent memory especially at this time of year,where it can get too overwhelming. I know I don't have to put up a brave face to say I'm not feeling low in spirit. Quite frankly, I just miss him terribly. Having flash back emotions the day daddy passed away seemed like it only happened yesterday..
I keep telling myself he is now in a better place, but I can't help missing him anyway. Thank God, He is near to the broken spirit. As we continue to silently pray, and worship him, through our pain. Every now and then the sting of his memories is there but trying to give it all to God can truly help make a difference all together.
Trying to shift the focus on the Now mindset, and just be grateful that even despite our loss, we still have each other. And that is something I am truly grateful for, having you, mommy, kuya Alan, Josh and Jamie in my life.
I just pray that God will continue to bring peace, love, and joy in our family and start to focus our mind and our hearts unto Jesus.
Again, Merry Christmas and Happy New beginning, bro!
Love you always,
Josh, Ellen and Jamie.
