Beginning a couple months ago, Aaron began preparing a Christmas list for Santa Claus up at the North Pole. He wanted to get his in early "just in case a lot of kids want the same thing." He's completely into those V-Tech and Leapfrog games. There was some giant dinosaur that he saw at Target that he wanted. Personally, I thought the thing would scare a child. So, Santa's been busy these last couple of months trimming down Aaron's list. With Christmas less than a week away, I thought I'd present my own list. This is a list of wishes, desires, items that won't come true, and some that hopefully will sometime in the future.
-Gracie to walk through that door right now
-Kate to be a Mama again
-Aaron to continue to let his innocence completely transform me
-Parkinson's Disease to leave my father-in-law alone
-My parents to get back together (It's been over 20 years; I think that's impossible. It's just a son's wish.)
-That somewhere in China there is a little child waiting for us to bring him/her home OR there is a mother who will be forced to make the largest decision of her life, which will completely change ours
-Charlie and Deanna to have their little Chaz back in their arms again
-Steven Curtis and Mary Beth Chapman to have their little Maria back in their arms again
-My students to grow into amazing young soldiers for Christ
-Our newly elected President to have the wisdom that only God can give him, to listen to His Truth, and govern accordingly
-My nephew to serve the Lord well through missionary work in Asia this Spring
-My brother, Dan, to realize that life is moving quickly, and his kids aren't young forever (Dan, I do hope you read this)
-My father's tests to come back negative
-To walk the farm with my grandfather again and hear him preach His Gospel
-To hear my grandmother sing again
-For Mike and Gayle's granddaughter to continue to grow in strength
-For Jake to return home safely from war
-For people to look at me and say, "I want to know what he's all about. Tell me about Jesus."
-For Jesus to come back soon
