The reason for the Season....

This morning as I was checking up on some friends blogs, I realized how I never post anything of real importance. This time of year is so emotional for me and I am not sure why. When I hear certain songs on the radio, while driving to work at 3am, I will literally begin to cry. Breath of Heaven, Mary Did You Know(sung by Kenny Rogers) and Believe(sung by Josh Groben) never fail to get the tears flowing.

This year is a time for loving each other and for missing the ones that are no longer here physically. December 16th always has a special place in my heart for two reasons. This is my Grams Rasmussen's birthday and the day my Grandpa Fleming passed away. I miss them both so much! I know they are both in heaven watching over me and my entire family.....heck, I think Uncle Rob was sent to heaven to teach Grandpa Fleming the truth! I know there is a reason for this season! I know it is to celebrate the birth of our Savior but I also believe it is a time to celebrate the lives of all those who have gone before us. As this season nears to the end, I pray that we can have the Christmas Spirit all year through.
